As a starting point, we built a map of potential causes, identifying social problems that are either causes or consequences of poverty and low development in Brazil. This work was done in partnership with the community members of Effective Altruism Brazil. The conclusion of this stage was a map of 59 causes grouped into seven areas: education, employment and income, food insecurity, obesity and malnutrition, housing, basic sanitation, health, and violence and crime.
Have you considered analysing animal welfare interventions? It is not related to poverty and low development, but Brazil’s rising incomes are resulting in more factory-farming.
From 2002 to 2022, the number of poultry birds in Brazil increased 78.2 % (= 1.60*10^9/​(898*10^6) − 1).
From 2000 to 2020, aquaculture production in Brazil increased 266 % (= 630*10^3/​(172*10^3) − 1).
Thanks for sharing, Gisele!
