Oxfam Unwrapped: Stronger communities

Since the 2021 Tigray and Amhara conflict, 1.8 million Ethiopians remain displaced due to conflict and drought.

Despite a ceasefire, millions, particularly women and children, remain in need of shelter, food, and water. Oxfam is working in partnership with communities to address these critical needs.
