Download or read book The Oxfam Handbook of Development and Relief written by Deborah Eade and published by Oxfam. This book was released on 1995 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook is the product of the experience of Oxfam UK and Ireland in its work in over 70 countries around the world. It offers an expression of Oxfam's fundamental principles: that all the people have the right to an equitable share in the world's resources, and the right to make decisions about their own development. The denial of such rights is at the heart of poverty and suffering. This reference work analyses policy, procedure and practice in such fields as health, human rights, emergency relief, capacity-building and agricultural production.
