“Gabrielle is one of the leading experts in the fields of gender and democracy/governance…She brings a finely-honed gender perspective to all aspects of democratization. Drawing on her years of field work and direct engagement with local partners, she is especially adept at linking field programming, academic research, and government policy. …It is not an exaggeration to say that in my 25+ years [as an executive in international democracy assistance], Gabrielle Bardall is one of the very finest persons I have worked with in terms of the quality of her work, her professionalism, character, and personal integrity.”
