The VOICE newsletter is a publication that is produced monthly by and for current and past Action Partners. The VOICE is an opportunity for Action Partners to share with the network and wider subscribers, the work they are doing in their communities to create positive social change. It highlights possibilities for Action Partners to network, partner and build coalitions on the issues they are passionate about. The topic each month has a strong thematic focus based on the interests communicated by Action Partners, the key activities within the OIYP program, what is happening at the time in the world and the priorities of Oxfam.
