Oxfam, together with our partners in Turkiye (Turkey) and Syria, is working to reach nearly 2 million people – 10 percent of the affected population – with aid and support so that they can rebuild their lives. Oxfam will provide protection, water and sanitation, shelter, and food support, and in the longer term, rehabilitation and reconstruction.

Dr Aruna Rao, Chair of the Oxfam International Board, said today: 

The richest 1 percent grabbed nearly two-thirds of all new wealth worth $42 trillion created since 2020, almost twice as much money as the bottom 99 percent

We are living through an unprecedented moment of multiple crises. Tens of millions more people are facing hunger. Hundreds of millions more face impossible rises in the cost of basic goods or heating their homes.
