OXFAM accepting applications for student leadership program.



Oxfam America, an international relief and development organization that creates lasting solutions to poverty, hunger, and injustice, is currently accepting applications for the CHANGE Initiative, their national student leadership program. CHANGE offers college students, at US based campuses, entering their sophomore or junior year the opportunity to become effective social change agents. CHANGE Leaders are exposed to the international development issues that inform Oxfam's work, and apply their skills and insights to run Oxfam campaigns on their campuses and in their communities.

Applications are due on April 1st, 2008. Selected students are required to participate in a week long training in Boston, July 19-25, 2008, which is organized and paid for by Oxfam. Students must also implement an Oxfam campaign on their campus and communicate regularly with Oxfam staff about the work they are undertaking during the 2008-2009 academic year.

Apply on line and watch our CHANGE video at: http://www.oxfamamerica.org/change.
If you have any questions please call 1-800-77-OXFAM ext. 2464 or email CHANGE@oxfamamerica.org
