A long-time supporter of Oxfam, Tony Robinson most recently visited
the Philippines for the Control Arms
campaign.
"On my trip to the Phillipines I saw the real impact
of fear that guns have on communities. I support Oxfam and Amnesty
in putting their strengths together to campaign for controls to
the deadly arms trade."
In the summer of 98, Tony also travelled to Brazil to
visit a community who have fought long and hard for their right
to a livelihood -- to collect nuts from the common land, and to
make soap from the nut-oil.
For the last ten years, Oxfam has been funding a local organisation
called ASSEMA to help the nut-collectors and soap-makers to develop
new Fair Trade products and to find new markets.
