Our Partners
Each BCA partner contributes their unique strengths – whether it’s fresh academic thinking, the energy and creativity of young people or specialist insight into digital trends and misinformation. Together, we combine these strengths to explore, test and create solutions that actually work.
Working together for the greater good.
University of Cape Town (UCT) HIV Mental Health Research Unit
We’re honoured to collaborate with the HIV Mental Health Research Unit (HIV MHU) at the University of Cape Town’s Neuroscience Institute. The Unit has led groundbreaking work at the intersection of HIV and mental health and stands as a leader in advancing evidence-based care, training and research.
Together, BCA and the HIV MHU are co-developing short courses that merge behavioural science with neuroscience, equipping professionals with the tools to understand and influence behaviour in ways that can transform health outcomes.
This partnership is not just about training; it’s about building a new generation of practitioners who can bridge science and society, applying fresh knowledge to improve lives and strengthen systems of care. By combining UCT’s pioneering research with BCA’s applied behavioural science, we’re shaping courses that are as practical as they are impactful, ensuring ideas translate into action across South Africa and beyond.
Centre for Information Integrity in Africa
We're proud to partner with the Centre for Information Integrity in Africa (CINIA). The organisation stands at the forefront of safeguarding democratic values and societal trust across the continent, combating the threats of disinformation through innovative research, interdisciplinary collaboration, and public engagement.
Together, we combine BCA's behavioural science expertise with CINIA's cutting-edge research on information integrity to create evidence-based interventions that strengthen media literacy, combat misinformation, and build resilient information ecosystems across Africa. This collaboration enables us to address the complex challenges of our digital age with solutions grounded in both rigorous research and deep understanding of human behaviour.
Murmur Intelligence
Murmur Intelligence brings deep expertise in digital landscape mapping that gets to the heart of modern behaviour change. Their social media intelligence reveals real conversations in digital communities, while real-time trend detection helps us spot emerging issues and adapt messaging for maximum impact.
This data-driven approach to audience segmentation moves beyond demographics to understand what truly motivates people, giving us a real edge in complex projects. This collaboration means we deliver behaviour change campaigns that resonate beyond the digital world, where people actually live.
