USAID’s Abt-led Harvest II program helps young entrepreneurs develop their products and capacity, creating linkages with new business partners and markets.

Some municipalities fund primary health care services in urban areas of Bangladesh.

Abt has extensive experience investigating and addressing the complex effects of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the environment and on human health.

The statistics are head-turning: The Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has an estimated $24 trillion in untapped mineral deposits, yet the sixth highest poverty rate in the world. Its health outcomes are similarly out of line with its wealth.

Locally led infrastructure and governance approaches have stabilized access to clean water, supported schools and rural markets, and built long-term community ownership.

Abt helped the EPA develop data-driven regulations, treatment tools, and exposure models that strengthen protections against contaminants such as PFAS and lead, improving drinking water safety for millions of Americans.

Abt’s expertise with PFAS, lead, and perchlorate enables us to assess health risks, technology effectiveness, and health benefits of water treatment options.

Our toxicologists design, implement, conduct and manage a wide range of laboratory and field-based bioassays, investigations and other tests to fill key data gaps and increase our understanding of the adverse effects of chemicals, mixtures, and other stressors on numerous organisms, including bacteria, algae, invertebrates, fish, reptiles, birds, and mammals.
