In a number of countries Oasis runs training and production units. In these, people are trained with vital skills such as tailoring so that they can earn a living; many go on to get work elsewhere, and some are able to continue work with Oasis, earning a sustainable income.

Oasis has developed a range of resources based on our experiences of establishing and operating successful programmes for children, young people and in communities.
Please email Lydia Fry if you would like to find out more or order any of the following resources:
