Who we are

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.

We are the institutional contractor for the USAID Mongolia Energy Governance Activity. This Activity is a 5-year program of technical assistance designed to address governance issues in the energy sector, and to promote the energy sector transition. Our goal is to promote self-reliance in Mongolia by bolstering energy sector governance. The Activity addresses the development of existing laws related to competitive and transparent processes, incentivize private investments, promotes the use of new advanced energy technologies, and to achieve a secure, stable, diversified, modern, and self-reliant Mongolian energy sector. We are committed to supporting the sustainable development of Mongolia's energy sector, with a focus on promoting transparency, competition, private sector investment, and the adoption of new energy technologies. 

Sincerely,

Michael Ellis, Chief of Party
