Oxfam GB Publishing has selected articles on civil society from the two journals Development in Practice and Gender & Development. To mark the United Nations Day in October these articles are free to download until November 30th 2007.

The main purpose of both journals is to generate and contribute to debate. Both journals are editorially independent, and articles do not necessarily reflect the policy positions of Oxfam GB.

Please also find a selection of Oxfam books available to download from the Oxfam Publishing website.
