This month, Camber Collective will formally launch the firm’s first office in Africa in Abuja, Nigeria. The new Abuja office will strengthen Camber’s connections with local and regional organizations while enhancing its ability to advise on strategy, coordination, and local implementation projects.  

The Abuja office marks Camber’s fifth location and third continent with a formal presence.

Camber Collective currently has regional offices in Seattle, San Francisco, Washington, D.C., and Paris. The Abuja office marks the firm’s first formal presence in Africa after working closely with partners in the region for over 15 years. In adding this fifth office to Camber’s global footprint, the firm is continuing to deepen local partnerships and support community- and government-led implementation of transformative global strategies in health, environment, prosperity, and gender equality.  

One of Camber Collective’s largest efforts in the country to date has been providing support to the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare’s Collaborative Action Strategy (N-CAS) through the Health Campaign Effectiveness Coalition. Camber has supported the first-ever effort to radically shift how the country runs health campaigns through systematic collaboration and integration across issue areas, partners, funders, providers, and government agencies. Camber has also worked with global partners in the region on research, strategy, and coalition-based projects addressing maternal health, family planning, nutrition, infectious disease, sanitation, and environmental issues. 

“Ever since we started Camber Collective, our global projects have been at the core of what we do. Bringing on team members with deep ties and years of expertise in Africa represents the culmination of years of meaningful work with partners in the region,” Brian Leslie, CEO of Camber Collective, said. “I’m eager to see how this move will strengthen our partners’ impacts and promote equitable change across the region.” 

Camber is a strategic partner to the organizations and fields dedicated to addressing the world’s most urgent challenges. Our purpose is simple: to create the conditions for an equitable and sustainable world. We work locally and globally across health, prosperity, climate, and gender equality to help our partners drive lasting impact.
