I&#8217;ve had the chance to see this campaign being put together from the inside as a consultant for Oxfam (and a new&nbsp;Oxfam paper by me on&nbsp;<em>Governance for a Resilient Food System<\/em><i>&nbsp;<\/i>is available&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oxfam.org\/en\/grow\/policy\/governance-resilient-food-system\"><span>here<\/span><\/a>) &#8211;&nbsp;and I think it&#8217;s a big deal.<\/p>\n<p>For one thing, the campaign marks a major break with traditional single issue campaigning. This isn&#8217;t just a campaign about biofuels, or landgrabs, or making agricultural trade fair, or climate change, or competition for land and water, or women&#8217;s rights. It&#8217;s about&nbsp;<em>all<\/em><i>&nbsp;<\/i>these things, united beneath the overall banner of &quot;food justice in a resource constrained world&quot;. I&#8217;ve felt for ages that NGOs need to move on from single issue campaigning towards ways of pushing for whole system change &ndash; and Oxfam is going for it in a big way.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, the campaign&nbsp;<em>ploughs<\/em><i>&nbsp;<\/i>through the traditional line between the development and environment agendas. For all that there are obviously enormous issues of fairness and equity involved in any discussion of environmental limits, many NGOs have struggled to figure out how to approach them. But the Grow campaign tackles them head-on.<\/p>\n<p>Finally,&nbsp;this is probably the biggest development campaign since <a href=\"https:\/\/www.makepovertyhistory.org\/takeaction\/\">Make Poverty History<\/a>. It&#8217;ll be the first time that every arm of Oxfam is working together on a single top priority campaign; over the next 24 hours, the campaign will be undertaking rolling launches in 45 different countries. At the same time, as I note in this&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.guardian.co.uk\/global-development\/poverty-matters\/2011\/may\/31\/global-food-crisis-real-cost-biofuels\"><span>post<\/span><\/a>&nbsp;on the Guardian development blog, other pathfinding NGOs like WWF and ActionAid are also converging on the issue of fair shares in a world of limits.<\/p>\n<p>This marks a big shift in the development agenda,&nbsp;and it&#8217;s crucial that this new push succeeds.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oxfam.org.uk\/get_involved\/system\/?intcmp=hp_hero-1_systembust-join_060111\"><span>Sign up now<\/span><\/a>&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guest post by Alex Evans, Global Dashboard Oxfam has just&nbsp;launched&nbsp;its new Grow campaign on food justice in a resource-constrained world.
