Oxfam’s new Economic Justice Campaign – otherwise known as GROW - marks the start of a global movement for better ways to grow, share and live together. It’s all about addressing the broken food system so we can put enough food on the table for everyone. It’s about land grabs, food prices, climate and small-scale farming. It’s about the food on your table; today and tomorrow.
The Campaign will be Oxfam’s “most ambitious campaign ever”. It is bigger, more complex and challenging than ever before.
The Drought situation that we are currently experiencing in the Horn of Africa is being driven by the key issues of the GROW campaign such as climate change, investment in agriculture and food price volatility. As part of the current Humanitarian scale up in this area therefore, Oxfam's campaigning, Policy and Media response will seek to achieve impact at national, regional and international levels for long-term solution orientated messaging, and to integrate drought response messaging and interventions within the overall GROW campaign messaging and strategy.
For this work, we are looking for a really talented individual to work closely with campaigners in the Region and members of the Oxfam International Global GROW campaign for 6 months to represent Economic Justice and GROW positions within the drought response policy messaging and interventions .
You will have excellent policy analysis, lobbying and policy writing skills and you will have an appreciation of the role of policy work within campaigning and in particular an understanding of the Horn of Africa context'
