Giving to the Oxford School of Global and Area Studies


The Oxford School of Global and Area Studies represents a major commitment by the University to enhancing teaching and research in Area Studies. The School brings together six units: African Studies, Latin American Studies (including Brazilian Studies and Mexican Studies), Japanese Studies, Contemporary China Studies, Russian and East European Studies, and Contemporary Asian Studies. It also provides a home for the British Inter-University China Centre and for the interdisciplinary network Italian Studies at Oxford.

The School is devoted to research and graduate teaching in academic disciplines which attempt to understand the complexity and the interrelatedness of society through anthropology, economics, politics, history, sociology and culture. Its teaching and research seek to take into account both the insights provided by the separate disciplines and the contextualisation provided by in depth knowledge of specific regions and countries. We have a number of Oxford School of Global and Area Studies initiatives you can choose to donate to, and gifts can be made as a single or regular gift. Our development programme has three core priorities:

  • student support
  • academic posts
  • academic programmes

Donors in the US can give tax-effectively via Americans For Oxford (AFO).
