The funding civilian agency is providing resources to strengthen U.S. contributions to the IPCC, an international scientific body that assesses climate change impacts and informs global climate policy. ICF's extensive background in environmental assessment, climate policy support, and international coordination—evidenced by significant blanket purchase agreements and contracts with the Environmental Protection Agency, National Science Foundation, and other agencies—positions the firm to support the technical and administrative requirements of sustained U.S. engagement in this critical international assessment process.
