It will vary wildly by what you count as “EA-related”. Also, I think it will be more meaningful to break it down by cause area.
In Global Poverty and Economic Development, I think EA (e.g., GiveWell) is noticeable but small percentage of all plausibly EA-related activities in the space (e.g., GAVI does quite cost-effective things with billions of dollars).
In Animal Welfare, I think EA (e.g., OpenPhil + ACE + Animal EA Fund) is roughly ~1/3rd of total EA-related spending (though, again, varies a lot by what counts as “EA-related”).
For the various x-risks / long-term stuff, I know the least about what the donors in the space are like, but OpenPhil feels significant. Also, Ben Delo joining the scene really complicates the estimate.
Makes sense. Do you have a ballpark estimate of total EA-related giving for 2017? (even if it’s a rough one?)
