Is anyone aware of any meta analyses of projects/grants that go into detail on the nature of the work (eg research/lobbying/something else)?
I want to better understand the skills/backgrounds of the folks working on these things + what the work actually looks like. In particular I want to get a better sense of where a person with a particular skillset/background who isn’t currently doing direct work is most likely to be effective/successful.
Maybe take a look at this! https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/tag/job-profile
