Recommendation for Danielle Chekaraou
With over 25 years of experience in global health, I can confidently say that Danielle is one of the most outstanding professionals I’ve had the privilege to work with. She worked as a long-term consultant for us over several projects at Food for the Hungry, Inc. She is an exceptional trainer in both English and French, renowned for her engaging, participatory learning methods. Danielle’s dialogical approach fosters dynamic collaboration, bringing together physicians, managers, and frontline health workers from ministries of health and NGOs to learn, exchange, and grow—enthusiastically and effectively.
Beyond training, Danielle ensures sustained impact. She designs and implements robust follow-up plans, providing ongoing support that strengthens capacity long after workshops conclude. Her deep expertise in formative research has been invaluable—not only in conducting research but also in empowering field teams to conduct their own formative research – using Barrier Analysis and other methodologies – and to apply insights for impactful social and behavior change interventions.
Danielle’s writing talents have been central to the success of numerous projects. From developing culturally relevant behavior change materials to co-authoring successful grant proposals, her contributions consistently elevate the quality of our work.
What sets Danielle apart is not just her technical expertise, but her creativity, collaborative spirit, responsiveness, and unwavering reliability. She is a true asset to any project or partnership.
