Your estimates imply the Shrimp Welfare Project’s (SWP) Humane Slaughter Initiative has been 38.6 (= 25*10^3/​648) times as cost-effective as the future work of Animal International Poland. This suggests someone working here who is 10 % more cost-effective than the 2nd best candidate for their role, and donates 10 % more of their gross salary to SWP has 38.6 times as much impact through donations than through work. This illustrates why I think donating more and better is the best strategy to maximise impact for the vast majority of people working in impact-focussed organisations (such as Animal International Poland).
For your assumption that disabling pain is 60.0 (= 1/​0.01667) times as intense as hurtful pain, and my guesses that this is as intense as fully health life, and that fully healthy life in chickens is 33.2 % as intense as in humans (given Rethink Priorities’ (RP’s) median welfare range of chickens of 0.332), 1 day of disabling pain in chickens (1 DCDE) is as bad as 0.0545 DALYs (= 60.0*0.332/​365.25). So I would say your estimate for the future cost-effectiveness of Anima International Poland is, based on your own pain intensities, equivalent to averting 35.3 DALYs per $ (= 648*0.0545), 3.55 k (= 35.3/​0.00994) times as cost-effective as GiveWell’s top charities (neglecting theireffectson animals). I estimated cage-free campaigns are 462 times as cost-effective as GiveWell’s top charities.
Thanks for the post, Saulius!
