The Global Environment Team

Since 1992, The Louis Berger Group, Inc. has been pioneering market-based approaches to cleaner production that have effectively changed the behavior of industries and governments in the developing world.  Formalized as a special division in 1998, the Global Environment Team (GET) provides management, technical, and consulting services to:

  • government agencies,
  • multi-and-bi-lateral donors,
  • multi-national corporations,
  • small-and medium-sized enterprises,
  • industry corporations,
  • local governments, and 
  • financial institution

GET is global in scope, but has a particularly strong and longstanding presence in Asia.  Our experience in Asia is based on firm relationships with Asian partners, both in the public and private sectors, gained by demonstrating our knowledge and expertise in cleaner production principles and practices.

Our multi-faceted Team is located in four offices: Washington, D.C.; Manila, Philippines; New Delhi, India,  a subsidiary office in Jakarta, Indonesia; and we recently opened a new office in Cairo, Egypt.

The Global Environmental Team has begun its experience in the Asian market but its true experiences lies world-wide as a part of Louis Berger Group Inc.  Presently it is a part of the United States-Asian Environmental Partnership (USAEP) throughout Asia and the Greenhouse Gas Pollution Prevention Project/Climate Change Supplement in India (GEP-CCS).

The Louis Berger Group has been in Asia almost as long as the company has been in existence. Founded in 1953, the firm, with approximately 3500 employees worldwide, has grown to become one of the largest engineering consulting groups in the world. Berger has field offices and projects in more than 60 developing countries and economies in transition worldwide. The firm has a strong physical presence in Asia – maintaining offices in Cambodia, China, Japan, India, Indonesia, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines. Our experience in Asia is well rounded and includes work in infrastructure development, policy and planning, economic sustainability, environment, democratization and peace keeping, and health. Our expertise in the region is strengthened by our strong engineering, social and physical science focus.

LBG believes it is important to be able to work effectively with host governments—at central, regional, and local levels—as well as with private firms, PVOs, local NGOs and local community groups. In Asia, the GET Team has worked closely with local environmental institutions such as the Pollution Control Association of the Philippines, Friends of the Environment Fund in Indonesia, the Federation of Thai Industries, the Indian Chamber of Commerce Environmental Management Center, and the Environmental Management and Research Society of Malaysia. Our team has also collaborated with international organizations such as the International Accreditation Forum (IAF) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in the promotion of ISO 14001 accreditation for environmental management systems.

Presently GET is working with the United States-Asian Environmental Partnership (USAEP) throughout Asia and the Greenhouse Gas Pollution Prevention Project/Climate Change Supplement in India (GEP-CCS).
