Giving Effectively (with James Rayton)

Giving Effectively (with James Rayton)

Stephen talks to James Rayton of the organization Giving What We Can.

Stephen and James talk about what effective altruism is, how it is possible to research and calculate effective giving, the possible problems and limits of effective altruism, how giving is affected by our emotions, how much it costs to save a human life, the cuts in aid across the world in 2025, how much difference we can all make, how and why SEND7 have been giving 10% of its profit to charity, and about whether it is right to talk about money and charity like this, or whether donating to charity is something which is supposed to be done in private and not spoken about.

Do you have a question? Stephen will answer it next week.
