Governance Bodies

We at Oxfam believe good governance is essential to keeping us on track in our mission to create a world without poverty. Oxfam Hong Kong is governed by a Council, which currently consists of 14 members from different background. The members are elected at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the Association of Oxfam Hong Kong. The most recent AGM was held on 16 September 2023.

The Council is responsible for Oxfam Hong Kong’s legal, ethical, strategic and administrative governance, as well as risk management. To ensure effective and good governance, the Council has formed and delegated specific powers to several Committees, as listed below. The Council and the Committees meet regularly. All Council, Committee and Association members serve on a voluntary basis.
