Hi Nick! We’d love to connect, while I won’t be at EA Global myself, our Director of Evidence and Impact, Anisa, will be attending and would be happy to set up a meeting via Swapcard once it launches. We’re really interested in learning more about OneDay Health’s work.
On the $20 GiveWell benchmark, it’s important to note that this refers specifically to $20 per additional year of family planning that wouldn’t have happened without the intervention. Across MSI’s “last mile” delivery channels, Outreach and Public Sector Strengthening, our average global cost per year of protection is $4.88 (this includes all CYPs). We’re currently analyzing which of our programs meet the $20 per additional CYP threshold and expect that many, though not all, will. At MSI, cost-effectiveness is a key focus, and we recognize that this can be a high bar, especially when all programmatic costs are included, but we think there may be select other organizations that can meet it too.
Thanks Meghan yes I’ll definitely organise a meeting with Anisa!
It seems to me like it would be challenging for a big international organistion to manage $5 for a year of protection including all management and overheads (often the biggest cost for NGOs), but if that’s in the ballpark that’s really impressive.
Do you have a public calculation you can share at all? All good if not!
