Environmental Health and Geosciences

Constella Futures is a leader in strengthening the environmental science and geoscience capabilities of countries as they assess their natural resources, mitigate against natural disasters, develop water resource systems, and cleanup environmental waste. A growing global concern is the connection between public and environmental health. Many of these public health threats, such as water quality and bioaccumulative contaminants, are associated with the complex relationships between people and their environment. We specialize in helping clients make strategic decisions in the presence of future uncertainty by emphasizing practical – rather than theoretical – applications.

Through our Cooperative Research and Development Agreements (CRADA) with federal agencies, such as the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Constella Futures can leverage more than 30,000 scientist, engineers, and technicians. This legally binding agreement allows Constella Futures to incorporate the company’s considerable experience in international management with this wealth of technical knowledge. Constella Futures, in collaboration with its CRADA partners, work to transfer skills and knowledge to our in-country partners through both informal training and courses. In the area of human resources development, Constella Futures staff has organized more than 3000 courses and customized training programs in a broad range of specialties to individuals from 125 countries.
