Some of the funders who evaluated proposals for the funding circle did cost-effectiveness BOTECs, but not all.
Farmed Animal Funders is a network made up of a diverse range of funders with differing theories of change, values, and priorities. They’re united in the mission to reform and replace factory farming with a more humane, sustainable food system. As each member makes their own independent funding decisions, we do not prescribe evaluation criteria nor methodologies for our members. However, in one-on-one philanthropic advising, I do incorporate cost-effectiveness estimates in charity evaluations and bespoke portfolio recommendations when these are a priority for the advisee.

Thanks for clarifying, Zoë.
I would be happy to review your BOTECs for free if you think it would be useful.
