Oxfam International Youth Partnerships (OIYP) is now launching recruitment for the 2010 – 2013 Program. Through the next 3 years, Oxfam Australia will provide opportunities and support for 300 young people to become Action Partners in order to demonstrate leadership and expand the influence of youth for positive changes locally, nationally and globally.  To be eligible to apply to become an Action Partner, applicants must be aged 18-25, able to speak English or Spanish conversationally and available to attend an 8 day event in November 2010, in New Delhi, India.

Oxfam Australia is requesting you to distribute this opportunity far and wide among your partner organisations and relevant youth networks. To be a part of OIYP is a wonderful opportunity to join a global network of young leaders.

Jam Alumni Partnership in Action

You woke up today and decided to take a moment off and listen to what the world is calling you to be and to do next. You step out of your daily routine and retreat, and in retreating you are basically taking some time to be with yourself and explore a question: what is the call of the world for me right now?

Imagine that you are in a space that invites you to personal reflection and a group of like-minded people are traveling this journey with you – a journey of individual and collective inquiry on clarifying one’s own call.

I have just come back from one of those spaces, a magical olive farm close to Mt. Pelion in Greece, where we were blessed by a full moon, where birds sing softly during all night and butterflies are bringing colour to the vibrant green during the day.
