The Gender Justice program focuses its work on addressing the (potential) impact of intersecting vulnerabilities that women experience in Jordan, including patriarchy, poverty, conflict and legal status. Oxfam partners with women’s rights organizations to achieve transformational change. It supports inclusive alliances which champion women’s rights and challenge laws, policies and social norms which perpetuate patriarchy and inhibit women’s public participation. The program seeks to amplify the voices of conflict-affected women (both refugees and Jordanians) seeking to claim their rights.
Building on Oxfam’s expertise in using a rights-based approach as well as working on shifting power relations and social norms, the Gender Justice program is implementing the Masarouna project that focuses on advancing the Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) of young people, with a strong focus on reaching various cross-sections of vulnerable women in Jordan who struggle to access appropriate and needed services.
