Oxfam works with people in Bangladesh on many different projects.
We help people to prepare for floods by assisting them to build
houses on stilts, above high-water level. We also help people on
the edge of everyday society, such as tribal people, beggars, street
children, and people with disabilities.
Other work involves health education, and helping women to get
together to claim equal rights and to have more control over their
lives. Often this is done by helping women to earn money of their
own, to give them independence.
