Oaktree is a youth-led international development organisation based in Australia.

Oaktree was founded in 2003 the goal: to end extreme poverty within our lifetime. Since then, our work has evolved to address our world’s unprecedented youth boom. Today, we are young people leading, demanding and creating a more just world.

Oaktree works in three main ways:

1. We fund education and leadership projects overseas which build capacity and empower young leaders in our region.
2. We build the capacity and influence of young people in Australia.
3. We influence policy change towards a more just world.

Each year we transform hundreds of young Australians into agents of change, empowering them to advocate for a more just world and youth participation in decision-making.
