Do what you love doing. Just change the world while you’re doing it.

Oxfam has loads of ways for you to get involved – from sporting challenges to club nights, and from volunteering at a festival to campaigning. And that’s why we’ve put this site together – so you can get involved with the things that you love and help fight poverty while you're at it.

Why 'Generation Why'?

We thought that 'Generation Why' summed up the people who might come to this site. People who question what's going on in the world and want to do something about it.

Who made this?

GenerationWhy is made by the lovely people of the Oxfam youth team. We’ve also been helped with a lot of the design by an agency called Poke, who commissioned a lot of the artwork you'll see dotted about the place.

We also want you to be the central focus of GenerationWhy. This site will be nothing without your input and ideas – so email us your events, ideas, ramblings and pictures, and we’ll see if we can get them online. Oh, and add comments to our Blog to let us know what you think.
