Abt Associates is an engine for social impact, fueled by caring, curiosity and cutting-edge research that moves people from vulnerability to security. Whether it’s welfare or weather disasters, the environment or economics, agriculture or HIV and AIDS, we address the world’s most pressing issues. Our work is diverse and so is our bold workforce. We never fail to ask “What if?” We identify patterns, we search for the best way.
The Asia-Pacific region is a vast area with unique development challenges. Operating in remote and difficult environments, we offer extensive experience in the region, strong technical capacity and a proven record of excellence in project management. We work in partnership with DFAT in a number of countries, including Fiji, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Myanmar, Timor Leste and Vietnam to strengthen the institutions and processes that contribute to security, stability, better health and inclusive economic growth. A number of our programs are specifically aimed at improving women’s economic participation and influencing the private and public sectors to promote women’s economic empowerment.
At Abt, we don’t just make a positive impact through our work; we make a positive impact at work, where our people are encouraged to contribute and grow. Our work environment is rooted in inclusivity. It’s how more than 3,600 people, speaking 56 languages, across 60 countries, are able to collaborate to make an impact in communities around the world.
Our mission is to improve the quality of life and economic well-being of people worldwide. We are a collaborative, global community, driven by our mission and our commitment to excellence as we strive to meet and exceed the highest professional standards. Our work with vulnerable populations makes a real impact; we are accountable for that work and how we do it. To ensure we’re able to bring our best to clients and colleagues, we promote a healthy balance between our personal and professional lives.
