3. A Goat | The 1st Day of Christmas
Goats can play an important role for people living
in rural communities in Mozambique. They
provide manure to help grow crops and produce
baby goats that can be sold for an income. Goats
are distributed to vulnerable families because
they are easy to raise and take care of. Oxfam
Australia also provides training in keeping,
vaccinating and de-worming the animals.

5. Lessons for Young Locals | The 2nd Day
of Christmas
In Vanuatu, young unemployed people need to
learn skills so they can get a job and improve
their self-esteem. Oxfam supports three youth
centres in Vanuatu’s main towns, Port Vila and
Luganville, to offer informal classes, workshops
and activities, like guitar and dance lessons,
nutrition, sewing, agriculture and futsal to young
people in the community.

7. Pig Manure| The 3rd Day of
Christmas
Pigs are an extraordinary friend to a family
trying to break free from the cycle of
poverty. In Vietnam, Oxfam is supporting an
innovative project that turns methane gas
from pig manure into energy for households
and schools, which cuts down on pollution
and provides local people with jobs.

11. A Food Basket | The 5th Day of
Christmas
Without direct access to markets, or the skills
and knowledge needed to negotiate a fair
price, Sri Lankan farmers are often ripped off.
Their produce is bought at a low price and sold
at prices too expensive for poor families.
Oxfam brings farmers together so they can sell
their produce directly to families and everyone
gets a fair price.

13. Seeds | The 6th Day of Christmas
India is among the most disaster-prone countries in
the world and each year disasters cause thousands to
flee their home, with the consequence being that
some people are living in absolute poverty, without
basic human necessities. Oxfam is working in these
vulnerable areas to help communities prepare for
disasters and improve food security. For example, we
provide seeds and training for families to grow their
own nutritious food so they can eat healthily and can
sell leftover produce at market.

climate change and improve their wellbeing.

ample vegetables that they can sell to earn a
small income as well.

Chickens are helping families in Mozambique

21. Women’s Empowerment | The 10th
Day of Christmas
Since its beginning, Oxfam Australia’s Straight Talk
program has brought together hundreds of Aboriginal
and Torres Strait Islander women from across the
nation to learn about Australia’s political system and
form powerful networks with each other and women
of Federal Parliament. At its core, Straight Talk
connects Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women
with the political system and develops the skills of
women as change makers within their own
community.
