With regards to animal welfare, we passed on several applications which we found promising, but couldn’t fully assess, to the Open Philanthropy Project, so we may eventually facilitate more grants in this area.
I would not have predicted such an extreme resource split going in: we received fewer high quality, EA-aligned applications in the global development space than we expected. However, CEA is currently prioritising work on improving the long-term future, so I would have expected the EA community and long-term future categories to receive more funding than global development or animal welfare.

What could have made applications/applicants in the global health & development space stronger?
