Local Expertise, Global Impact.
Local Impact, Global Purpose: FINN Partners is a leader in global public health in Africa, leveraging world-class marketing and communications expertise with an unparalleled on-the-ground presence. We have dedicated teams across 53 African countries and unique experience working on Africa’s most urgent health challenges—from immunisation and nutrition to combatting the public health consequences of climate change.
Our holistic approach delivers purpose-driven storytelling and advocacy, blending localized action through strategic policy engagement and evidence development; this allows innovations in global public health to be contextualized into local actions that resonate with all cultures across the continent. Importantly, our health communications activity in Africa isn’t about simply shifting messages, at FINN Partners, we aim to empower communities, actors, and stakeholders through storytelling, celebrating successes, amplifying local voices, and supporting collaborative efforts to achieve public health objectives.
