Pros

initially they were very strong on emergency programmes, the public health programmes in emergency situations were the best

Cons

the underlying objectives and goals changed to less grass roots programmes to more policy and advocacy - they are letting emergency programmes slip

Pros

It helps overcome famine, natural disasters, illnesses, etc. Oxfam and all its workers work hard to help all these people suffering in many different countries around the world, not only in Africa as many believe but also in Latin America, Russia, etc.

Cons

Working alongside many people from different sectors can be challenging but I have learnt from this brilliant experience so much knowledge and experiences that I can use in other aspects of life. I am very proud of being able to say I am part of it!
