Move to Public Sector Consulting from Big 4 Risk Consulting

I am currently a Risk Consulting Associate at a Big 4 Financial Services Advisory practice. However, the work is not really what I expected and is pretty dull IMO. I am interested in transitioning into Public Sector consulting having previous with the State Dept and state governments.

With interests in international development, policy, and infrastructure development, which firms would offer the best chances for being staffed on project with clients like the World Bank, United Nations, State Department, USAID, etc?
