The National Business Compact on Coronavirus (NBCC) is a coalition of like-minded partners that was set up in March 2020 to respond to the complex, rapid onset emergency and systemic shock of the COVID-19 pandemic in Kenya, and later Uganda and Tanzania.  

NBCC, in partnership with Amref Health Africa mobilised on-the-ground and digital action for a year as part of the Unilever-FCDO (UK’s Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) funded Hygiene and Behaviour Change Coalition (HBCC1) 

In April 2022, Amref-NBCC is back, mobilising as part of the recently launched HBCC2, with renewed funding from Unilever-FCDO. 

Amref-NBCC's goal is to drive scale, reaching more communities and populations across Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania, doing so in an inclusive way. This mobilisation ambitiously targets at least 75 million people. 

The NBCC secretariat is currently being hosted by Brands on a Mission, a B-Corp founded by Prof Myriam Sidibe (one of the co-founders of NBCC), that is working to help brands and organisations accelerate their impact in health and well-being.
