2025 has been marked by deepening aid cuts by major donors. Our latest briefing paper, looks at the implications of these cuts on Africa's development and calls for a reformed aid system that centres equity and rebuilds global cooperation. policy-practice.oxfam.org/resources/ch...
Promotional graphic for an Oxfam briefing note titled Changing Face of Aid in Africa: Outlook, failures, and reform potential. The background is purple with white text. It highlights that 2025 has seen deepening aid cuts by major donors, with implications for Africa’s development, exposing failures in official development assistance (ODA) to reduce poverty, inequality, and climate vulnerability. The note analyzes ODA trends, gaps in support for Least Developed Countries and women’s rights organizations, and the misalignment with aid effectiveness principles. It calls for reforms to center equity, strengthen country ownership, and rebuild global cooperation based on justice and solidarity. On the right is a photo of a woman holding a woven basket containing dark round seeds or nuts. A label reads 'READ THE FULL PAPER ON POLICY AND PRACTICE'. Oxfam logo appears at the bottom right.

A green-themed graphic marked “NEW” and titled “BRIEFING PAPER.” The overview highlights how the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is highly affected by climate change, water scarcity, and fossil fuel dependency. Austerity policies in the region deepen inequality and block climate investment. The paper argues that taxing the wealthy and investing in public services is key to climate justice.

Orange graphic announcing a new briefing paper titled “Africa’s Inequality Crisis and the Rise of the Super-Rich.” The left side features an orange background with black and white text. It explains that Africa faces a double inequality crisis: extreme inequality and weak government commitment. The African Union has urged member states to reduce inequality by 15% in the next decade and has identified progressive taxation as a tool to do so. However, most countries are not leveraging this tool effectively due to regressive IMF policies, illicit financial flows, and political inaction.

Between 2021 and 2022, we conducted 3 Human Rights Impact Assessments on behalf of Bolton Food. The papers identify risks and root causes and share recommendations. Read the first two papers here: Ecuador - policy-practice.oxfam.org/resources/hu... Morocco - policy-practice.oxfam.org/resources/hu...
A promotional social‑media graphic. Left side uses the same dark purple textured background with a green ribbon tag reading “NEW.”White and black text below reads:

BRIEFING PAPEROVERVIEW:This paper presents the first of three Human Rights Impacts (HRIAs) conducted on behalf of Bolton Food, focusing on its tuna supply chain in Ecuador between 2021 and 2022.

The assessment evaluates both actual and potential human rights impacts at the production stage of the value chain. It seeks to identify the root causes of these risks and impacts and to provide actionable recommendations to Bolton Food and relevant stakeholders.

For the purposes of this assessment, the primary group of rights‑holders identified includes male and female workers employed in canned tuna processing plants in Manta, as well as male workers aboard tuna fishing vessels operating in the Eastern Pacific Ocean.

A green call‑to‑action box at the bottom center reads “READ THE FULL REPORT ON POLICY AND PRACTICE.” The Oxfam logo appears in white in the bottom‑right corner.

Right side features a smartphone‑frame mock‑up containing the report cover, showing close‑up photography of workers wearing protective clothing and gloves working on a tuna production line. The cover headline reads “HUMAN RIGHTS IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF BOLTON FOOD’S CANNED TUNA SUPPLY CHAIN IN ECUADOR.”A promotional social‑media graphic. Left side features a dark purple textured background with a green ribbon tag in the top-left corner reading “NEW.” White and black text below reads:

RESEARCH REPORTOVERVIEW:This paper reports on the second human rights impact assessment (HRIA) carried out by Oxfam at Nouvelle Cosarno, Bolton Food’s tuna cannery in the coastal city of Agadir, Morocco.

The factory employs more than 400 workers, 90% of whom are performing manual tasks. Women make up the majority of the manual workers.

The main objectives of the assessment are:to identify the company’s actual and potential human rights risks and impacts at the production stages of its Moroccan factory,to identify the root causes of these risks and impacts, andto make recommendations to Bolton Food and key stakeholders on how to address, mitigate or remediate the actual and potential impacts identified.

At the bottom center is a green call‑to‑action box reading “READ THE FULL REPORT ON POLICY AND PRACTICE.” In the bottom‑right corner is the Oxfam logo (a white circle with a stylized figure) and the word “OXFAM.”

On the right side of the graphic is a smartphone‑frame mock‑up showing the cover page of the actual report.
