For emergency aid in response to the flooding in Mozambique.
Oxfam set up water systems, built latrines, distributed mosquito nets and household kits, built schools and provided information on the avoidance of malaria.
Oxfam was established in 1942 as the Oxford Committee for Famine Relief, created to address the needs of war refugees and displaced people. Today, Oxfam works internationally to address the needs of people living in poverty through long-term programs focusing on education, health, economic development and human rights. The organization also undertakes projects in areas plagued by conflict and natural disasters.
