Sjir Hoeijmakers and colleagues at Giving What We Can have addressed this question very nicely in two posts: Overview of effective giving organisations and GWWC’s evaluations of evaluators.
We’ve got
GiveWell
The Center for Effective Philanthropy
Effective Giving
Grantmakers for Effective Organizations
The Life You Can Save
The Happier Lives Institute
And probably others (not to mention groups like Rethink Priorities, OpenPhil, The Effective Altruism Foundation, and Good Ventures who fund these projects but also play a somewhat overlapping role).
Is this too many? Too few?
Has there been a side-by-side comparison to establish overlaps and differences between them?
Has there been meta-evaluator work to establish which of the evaluators/advisors qualifies as an effective charity?
I did some cursory research this morning and didn’t find anything so I figured I’d ask. Apologies if I overlooked something obvious.
Thanks in advance,
