Monitoring and Evaluation Specialist & Climate Infrastructure ConsultantDr. Helen Gall serves as the QII Partnership’s Monitoring and Evaluation Specialist and as a key member of the Infrastructure Finance, PPPs and Guarantees Global Practice climate resiliency team. Her extensive experience with data analysis and interpretation in academia, the private sector, and government cover topics closely aligned with the QII Principles including the integration of mitigation and adaptation opportunities in infrastructure projects, disaster risk management efforts related to climate and natural hazards, and research pertaining to landscape evolution. Moreover, Dr. Gall has implemented this knowledge within major PPP and public works infrastructure projects that encompass urban transit, water supply, and sanitation systems. Before joining the QII Partnership, Dr. Gall served as a member of the Public Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility’s climate resiliency and environmental sustainability team, where she worked to mainstream climate mitigation, adaptation, and resiliency within the group’s technical advisory work and knowledge product development. Her work directly supported the promotion of private participation in infrastructure through better planning and capacity building for low-carbon and climate-resilient (LCR) infrastructure.Prior to joining the World Bank, Dr. Gall worked in the private sector as a geologist at an engineering consulting firm on the integration of geologic, environmental, and climate criteria within the design and construction of large-scale infrastructure projects. Helen also consulted for the federal government to better plan for infrastructure lifecycle risks by investigating failed infrastructure projects and applying lessons learned to newly planned infrastructure in its development phases.Dr. Gall received a Ph.D. in geosciences from Pennsylvania State University, with a specific focus on disaster risk management (DRM), in which she used geophysical and geochemical data sets to better understand timescales of natural disasters and their impact on landscape development.
