International Development Service
For more than 25 years, ICF’s interdisciplinary teams have worked with clients such as the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), Asian Development Bank (ADB), the European Commission (EC), the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), and the UK Department for International Development (DFID) in more than 100 countries to help our counterparts develop creative solutions to protect and improve the quality of life in developing countries and emerging economies.
Using our research-to-practice model, ICF provides true end-to-end solutions that improve sustainability and produce significant, successful programs and practices. We develop and disseminate evidence-based best practices and apply relevant evaluation, design, capacity-building, and implementation expertise to all of our engagements.
