Hi Luke, here are a few things that I enjoyed learning/hearing about the EA community in 2021.
Peter Singer won the $1M Berggruen Prize and gave the entire prize to effective altruist aligned organizations.
GiveDirectly sent a cash transfer to its 1 millionth household this year. With their track record in growth, GiveDirectly thinks that it will eventually be able to serve 2M households a year.
The Against Malaria Foundation has $72M of donations through the first half of their FY22 (FYE 6⁄30), which is a 112% increase from FY21. This is enough to purchase over 30M bed nets.
GiveWell: Directed $1.5M to charities in 2010 and over $500M in FY21, and are projecting to direct ~$1B annually by 2025.
