I misunderstood you on what you meant by promoting some sort of effective altruism in developing countries. I understand now. I agree spreading effective altruism throughout China, and India, would make lots of sense.
Effective altruist Kristian Ronn and his friend have launched an effective altruist organization launching a project aimed at helping anyone figure out how to decrease their negative impact on the world. It’s called Normative], and it’s in a contest to be funded. I’m unsure if it’s non-profit, or for-profit. Click here to vote for it.
Institutions in general are very slow to change, especially large ones, but I think that the non-profit sector can only ignore evidence-based interventions and effectiveness evaluation for so long. It’s like with the environmental movement. In the 90′s, environmentalism wasn’t as big, but in the 2000′s the public’s expectations have changed and now most companies have to at least claim they are sustainable just to stay relevant.
By all means we should still try. I think you’re right.
We already agree that it’s religious effective altruists who will likely cause effective altruism to grow greatly among different religions. I’m glad you’re so optimistic. I sincerely believe there isn’t much wrong with effective altruism either. It might be the first antifragile social movement I’ve ever been part of.
