My notes on what I liked about the post, from the announcement:
“Cause Profile: Mental Health” is a strong investigation of a cause which hasn’t gotten very much attention from the EA movement.
Especially good features of the post:
An introduction which serves as a useful guide to a long analysis.
Summaries of each section placed under the section headers, making navigation and comprehension even easier.
Endnotes which help readers verify information for themselves.
The use of a classic framework for impact analysis (scale, neglectedness, and tractability), which helps readers compare mental health to other cause areas that have been evaluated using the same framework.
We hope to see more such investigations in the future for other promising causes.
This post was awarded an EA Forum Prize; see the prize announcement for more details.
