Abt Associates (Tanzania)

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, they address the world's most pressing issues. Their work is diverse and so is their bold workforce. 

Tanzania has had one of the faster-growing economies in Sub-Saharan Africa in recent years – with agriculture as a key sector – but many people still live in poverty and suffer from malnutrition.
Since the 1980s, Abt Associates' has addressed nutrition, health and other needs, including:

• Financing and delivering health services;
• Protecting millions of people from malaria;
• Expanding private sector treatment for HIV and AIDS; and
• Promoting more effective and accountable government at all levels.
