Has anybody changed their behaviour after the animal welfare vs global health debate week? A month or so on, I’m curious if anybody is planning to donate differently, considering a career pivot, etc. If anybody doesn’t want to share publicly but would share privately, please feel free to message me.
I redirected my giving from GiveWell to EA Animal Welfare Fund. I had been meaning to for a while (since the donation election), so wouldn’t necessarily call it marginal, but it was the trigger.
I haven’t exactly changed my behaviour, but the fact that I didn’t read any arguments for donating to global health that I found particularly persuasive means that I’m slightly less likely to change any of my recurring donations (currently 100% animal welfare).
I’d love to know the answer to this question, but I haven’t tracked it (I’m hoping we will get some information from a) the donation election—where people can comment on their vote and b) next year’s EA survey).

Linking @Angelina Li’s post asking how people would change their behaviour, and tagging @Toby Tremlett🔹 who might have thought about tracking this.
