I would love to read an approach to effective political giving. Does anyone know of such a document? If the effective altruism movement had focussed on political action and donations instead of private charity to supply bed nets we might have a much better world (including money for bed nets). |

Of course, with bed nets and schistosomiasis treatments, you can perform 1% of the intervention and demonstrate 1% of lives saved (although it might take years to see the full benefits from things like better school attendance) which obviously isn't the case for political interventions.
