A clarification that CSER gets some EA funds (combination of SFF, SoGive, BERI in kind, individual LTFF projects) but likely 1⁄3 or less of its budget at any given time. The overall point (all these are a small fraction of overall EA funds) is not affected.
I’ll just note that lots of what CSER does is much more policy relevant and less philosophical compared to the other orgs mentioned, and it’s harder to show impact for more practical policy work than it is to claim impact for conceptual work. That seems to be part of the reason EA funding orgs haven’t been funding as much of their budget.
