What it's all about

Are you amazing? Do you want to Change the world?
If so, Oxfam wants to hear from you!

Oxfam knows that the real way to make lasting change is through people taking action, through people making their voices heard, through people demanding to change minds.

“Many little things done by many little people, will change the face of the World”

Following on from the successful programme over the last 3 years, Oxfam is giving 35 young people an amazing opportunity to receive specialist training and knowledge for campaigning on development issues. We are running an all expenses paid 4-day residential training course in Birmingham from 19 – 22 September 2008, which will equip you with everything you need to know to make an impact in the fight against poverty and suffering.

What do we ask in return? Only for you to put these skills and knowledge to good use in your own community. At the end of the course everyone will draw up an individual action plan, and on returning to your community you will link up with other Change Graduates in your area to try to effect lasting Change.

If you are aged between 18 and 25, relish a challenge and you have the time and energy to commit to changing the world, Oxfam would like to hear from you.
