About URC

Turning Complexity into Clarity

URC is a leading international development firm. For six decades, URC has delivered high-impact, sustainable solutions, helping clients solve complex challenges and achieve lasting results.

Building on its internationally recognized health expertise, URC expanded into economic development and trade, security and resilience, and monitoring and evaluation with the acquisition of IBI in 2024. This improved our ability to provide a more comprehensive and wider range of integrated solutions for clients facing new demands and challenges in international development today.

We have delivered results through more than 100 projects in 110 countries, including fragile and conflict-affected settings such as Mali, Ghana, Guatemala, Burma, Haiti, and the Philippines. We also have built coalitions of 50 organizations across 46 countries to strengthen services, improve workforce performance, and turn research into policy.

Our work pairs strong analysis with practical solutions tailored to businesses, governments, and institutions.

We expand economic opportunity, reduce trade barriers, and help clients address security and stabilization priorities. Over the past 30 years, URC has supported domestic resource mobilization, trade, and institutional capacity in low-resource and fragile countries, helping build efficient, transparent, and accountable systems that support private-sector growth and inclusive development in 50 countries.
