Hi Richard,
Thanks for your comments.
Sorry to have been unclear—there isn’t a major rebranding planned. The changed vision should be thought of more as clarifying what lies at the heart of gwwc and what makes it unique. In large part, the reason for doing it is to further focus the team, rather than to change anything for others. It doesn’t mean that we plan to move away from working most on extreme poverty (for the reasons outlined in my more recent blog post). Ending extreme poverty is still a major focus for us (as it is for many EAs), but we wanted a vision that articulated why we work on that, and encapsulated the other things we care about.
I am planning to write a blog post about our vision on the GWWC blog in May, I’m glad that seems like a helpful thing to do.
