This is: GWWC's new recommendations and cause area funds, published by Sjir Hoeijmakers on November 27, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum.Giving What We Can's new fund and charity recommendations are now online!These recommendations are the result of our recent evaluations of evaluators.Our research team hasn't evaluated all impact-focused evaluators, and evaluators haven't looked into all promising causes and charities, which is why we also host a variety of other promising programs that you can donate to viaour donation platform.We're also thrilled to announce the launch of a new donation option: Giving What We Can cause area funds. These funds offer a convenient option for donors who want to be confident they'll be supporting high-impact giving opportunities within a particular cause area and don't want to worry about choosing between top-rated funds or having to manually update their selections as our recommendations change.Global Health and Wellbeing FundEffective Animal Advocacy FundRisks and Resilience FundYou can set up a donation to one or more of these funds, and we'll allocate it based on the best available opportunities we know of in a cause area, guided by the evaluators we've evaluated.
