Abt Global generates evidence to help clients address tough challenges—in education, housing, child welfare, employment, and health. Our researchers implement effective and efficient processes to collect and analyze vast amounts of data, producing frequently cited studies. Does a program reduce food insecurity and improve nutrition? Does a vaccine wane in effectiveness against a new virus variant? Our global interdisciplinary teams—research methodologists, statisticians, ethnographers, economists, epidemiologists, data scientists, and implementation research scientists— help policymakers answer such questions. They assess whether programs work to improve people’s lives, and if not, how to best resolve them.

Our Approach and Results

Our innovative and adaptable RME approaches include systematic evidence reviews and randomized controlled trials. We conduct research that engages communities and explores tough questions. We harness artificial intelligence enhancements and our own online tools to increase reviews’ efficiency and accuracy.
