The Australian Government recently awarded Abt Global a contract to implement the next iteration of Australia’s development support to Fiji, through the Fiji Program Support Platform (FPSP).
The $90 million umbrella program covers approximately half of Australia’s development assistance to Fiji through Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. FPSP includes sector programs in basic education, scholarships and the Australia Awards, health, disaster response, social infrastructure and technical assistance to improve public sector governance. The Platform also addresses climate and disaster resilience objectives as well as gender equality, disability and social inclusion across the entire portfolio.
In line with Australia’s commitment to embedding First Nations perspectives, experience and contemporary ties into policy, FPSP will elevate Indigenous and community voices and perspectives throughout. Abt will manage the Platform with our Fijian partner Talanoa Consulting, Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) partner Clear Horizon, and indigenous Australian partner Ninti One.

Public Warning: Recruitment Phishing Scam Impersonating Abt Global
Abt Global has become aware of a phishing scheme targeting individuals with fraudulent interview requests and job offers. Abt’s secure IT systems and private applicant information have not been compromised; scammers are impersonating Abt employees, using the company name and branding to mislead and engage potential job seekers in fake recruitment processes. Scammers might reference real job openings or describe fake opportunities that generally match individuals’ professional backgrounds, with the goal of establishing communication and eventually obtaining private financial information to defraud people. The Federal Bureau of Investigation and Federal Trade Commission warn that employment scams such as this are a growing cyber threat. Abt urges anyone who is contacted about employment opportunities to exercise caution and know that: All communication from Abt Global will be from an Abt employee using the @abtglobal.com email domain (e.g., recruiting@abtglobal.com).
