Oxfam-Magasins du monde

With more than 3,000 volunteers working in local and school teams, Oxfam World Stores has more than 65 stores and almost as many teams. Thanks to them, their end customers become fully aware of the impact of alternatives to traditional shops. But their actions are not limited to stores! The teams are also active in secondary and higher schools , in municipalities, at festivals and other events... A well-established local impact ! 💚

As a member of the World Fair Trade Federation (WFTO), Oxfam - Magasins du monde is audited (according to WFTO's criteria), like its supplier partners, on its fair trade practices. As NGOs, they are also audited by the development cooperation. 🌼

Oxfam recognises that poverty and social injustice are closely linked to environmental challenges, including climate change, deforestation and the degradation of natural resources. As a result, the organization works to promote sustainable and resilient practices, while advocating for fair and equitable environmental policies: relocation of global value chains, revision of the model of trade agreements, human rights and environmental due diligence, integrating the cost of carbon emissions into the price of imported products, according to their climate impact... 🌍🌿 A real all-round job!
