Oxfam's most important book for a decade
From Poverty to Power is Oxfam's most important book for a decade. It's in-depth look at the causes and effects of poverty and inequality, as well as the possible solutions. Full of up-to-date research, human stories, statistics, and compelling arguments, we think it's the state of the art text about the world we live in, and how we can make it a better place for everyone. For busy teachers and older (14+) pupils, there's also a summary available - The Urgency of Now. Both books are available to buy or to download free of charge.
We are currently recruiting an intern to assist with the production and marketing of our 2009 Catalogue for Schools. This post is a pivotal role in the Oxfam Education Publishing Team and provides the opportunity to work alongside other members of the team in producing, promoting and distributing our high quality educational resources.
We require a commitment of minimum 3 days a week, from August 08 to January 09. This role is office based at Oxfam House, Oxford.

Good quality education relies on good quality teachers. Celebrate the importance of teachers around the world with World Teachers’ Day on October 5th. 
Education is essential to helping children make the most of their skills and abilities, allowing them to lead full and happy lives. Education also provides a route out of poverty.
Two million new teachers are still needed to provide children with a decent education – and 15 million will be needed by 2015 to achieve education for all.
This World Teachers’ Day, why not teach about the importance of teachers and education across the world?
