As many have commented, I absolutely agree with you.
However, I’d like to comment that all of the inputs for us to shape EA in “non-Western” (or at least non-rich) countries are already there.
For example, in Chapter 2 of 80,000 Hours we can find this line:
“[...] once you have more than 150 doctors per 100,000 people [...] almost all developed countries, additional doctors only have a small impact.”
Which should tell us that the examples are from “developed countries” because that is the target audience.
However, it is up to us from the Global South to adapt it for ourselves.
