OXFAM who are we?

OXFAM INTERNATIONAL VISION:
Oxfam’s vision is a just world without poverty: a world in which people can
influence decisions that affect their lives, enjoy their rights, and assume
their responsibilities as full citizens of a world in which all human
beings are valued and treated equally.

OXFAM INTERNATIONAL OBJECTIVE:
Humanitarian Assistance: By 2019, supported by the international community
and humanitarian organizations, local state institutions and civil society
in the most crisis prone/affected countries are able and willing to deliver
high quality, impartial and independent assistance to those in need

Resilience: By 2019, resilience to disasters and conflict is strengthened
in high risk countries, through improved disaster preparedness and risk
reduction, and building the capacity of civil society groups and
communities, in particular women, to manage shocks, stresses and address
root causes of conflict.

Women’s rights: By 2019 the different impact of conflict and disasters on
men and women, and their differing needs, are recognized and addressed by
duty bearers and humanitarian organizations, leading to greater gender
justice and respect for women’s rights in crisis affected countries.

Vision for Indonesia

Oxfam Indonesia has the vision that people in Indonesia will live equitably
and free from injustice of poverty, enjoy their rights, and are resilient
in times of disasters. By 2020, 2.5 million women and men in Indonesia are
empowered to overcome poverty, vulnerability and inequality.

Background

The Empower Youth for Work (EYW) project in Indonesia aims to reduce
poverty in rural coastal areas that are prone to the impact of climate
change, by empowering youth (especially young women) to secure viable
employment and entrepreneurship opportunities. This project will facilitate
youth (young women and men) to gain better employment opportunities by
strengthening their capacity, helping them to develop the right attitudes
and behaviors for work; generating and improving new economic opportunities
in the form of entrepreneurship and paid employment; enabling them to
engage with companies to get better work environments; and assisting them
to claim their rights to better health, and to enjoy social environments
that support their growth and potential.

Because the project sites are prone to the impacts of climate change, youth
will be provided with knowledge on climate change to enable them to build
their resilience, adapt, and mitigate the risk of climate change impacts
that could affect their enterprises and communities. Youth will also be
provided with knowledge on sexual and reproductive health rights (SRHR) so
that they (especially young women) can have the control over their bodies,
preventing sexual exploitation. Parents and community members will be
involved to create an enabling and healthy environment for youth to become
self-reliant and to develop their enterprises and entrepreneurship.
Government and companies will be engaged and made accountable for increased
gender-sensitive and youth friendly policies.

Be part of a dynamic working environment. We are recruiting 2 positions
under Economic Justice Programme with a real commitment to gender equality
and International aid and development background. This post will be based
in Makassar for fixed term contract 12 months with possible extension.
