  • Women's Right to Be Heard: An evaluation of Oxfam GB’s “Raising Her Voice” portfolio
    2013
    Co-Authors: Hannah Beardon, Eva Otero
    Abstract:

    This final evaluation is both a meta-analysis of the national evaluations of the Oxfam GB's Raising Her Voice (RHV) programme, and an assessment of the global portfolio as an entity. The former seeks to draw learning and conclusions from the evidence generated by the different RHV projects on progress, implementation and impact, review and update the RHV theory of change, and identify strategies which can support effective work on gender and governance. The latter focuses on the added value of the RHV global portfolio to the individual projects, and to governance and gender work of Oxfam GB.   For an overview of this evaluation read the summary report:  Raising Her Voice: The power to persuade

  • NGO-Business Interaction for Social Change: Insights from Oxfam’s Private Sector Programme
    The International Food and Agribusiness Management Review, 2012
    Co-Authors: Luli Pesqueira, Johan Verburg
    Abstract:

    For over a decade, Oxfam has increasingly interacted with the private sector as a means to address the wicked problem of poverty. For Oxfam, poverty is caused by injustice and is a consequence of people’s inability to materialize their human rights. Such rights-based approach to development shapes Oxfam’s view on how businesses can play a role in achieving socially responsible and sustainable economic progress. In this contribution, we present an overview of Oxfam’s Private Sector Programme and discuss some of its key features concerning policy and practice. In particular, we define four areas in which Oxfam’s Private Sector Programme exerts change: markets, rules, knowledge, and empowerment. We also discuss some of the risks and excuses commonly faced by Oxfam and we pose some questions for future research.
