Thanks Michael, all great points and really useful additions. I’ve added those in. Your draft research agenda was definitely inspiration for this work, though I realise I hadn’t looked at it in a while, so thanks for re-sharing. It also shows that each meta-policy question can be broken down into all sorts of mini-meta policy questions. I’ll be keen to speak with you about how you’ve approached prioritising across them all.

Unfortunately the summary on that is that I haven’t really done any further work developing the agenda, prioritising across its questions, or actually working on the questions. (Where “further work” means “since initially writing and sharing the agenda.)
That said:
Some RP interns did produce some outputs related to the agenda:

We’re currently hiring for a Longtermism researcher, and it’s possible this person would end up working on things related to that agenda
