One person in three in the world lives in poverty. Oxfam is determined to change that world by mobilizing the power of people against poverty.
Around the world, Oxfam works to find practical, innovative ways for people to lift themselves out of poverty and thrive. We save lives and help rebuild livelihoods when crisis strikes. And we campaign so that the voices of the poor influence the local and global decisions that affect them. In all we do, Oxfam works with partner organizations and alongside vulnerable women and men to end the injustices that cause poverty.
Oxfam is an international confederation of 20 organizations networked together in more than 90 countries, as part of a global movement for change, to build a future free from the injustice of poverty. The Oxfam International Secretariat is currently headquartered in Nairobi, with offices in Oxford, Washington DC, New York, Brussels, Geneva, and a liaison office with the Africa Union in Addis Ababa. This post will be part of the OI Secretariat Pan-Africa Program team.
The Role

The Inclusive Peace and Security Advisor will be working specifically on both women, youth, and inclusive peace and security at a continental/AU policy level, that could drive Oxfam’s global campaign to deliver high level advocacy, and at the same time effectively work with and connect our programming in-country to regional and global capitals.
