Hi Joost, In Wallonia, there are named as "Oxfam - Magasins du monde". See this map: http://www.oxfammagasinsdumonde.be/acheter-equitable/magasins-du-monde-oxfam/#.WIhsf2co-Cg
In Arlon (where I checked), there are two Oxfam shops, one focused on selling food & craft and the second one focused on selling 2nd hand clothes. The Oxfam shop that sells fair trade food and crafts is tagged as a shop=convenience and the other one that sells second hand clothes is tagged as shop=clothes & second_hand=only. I'm OK with mapping as convenience the Oxfam shop. I don't know if we'd better map Oxfam 2nd hand clothes as shop=clothes or shop=charity... After a look on the wiki, it seems OK to map Oxfam 2nd hand shops as charity since the money goes to Oxfam for charity. Anyway, I knwo some places where the Oxfam shops mix the second hand clothes and the fair-trade food and crafts.
