Researching AI governance at the intersection of political science and economics.
Update: Seems like PEPFAR is back for at least 90 days.
Update 2: The waiver only applies to PEPFAR, not other crucial aid programs.
How sure are you on #1? I want to organize US folks to contact their representatives and senators, but want to be specific with the ask. Is it 1) waive the pause or 2) just ensure it comes back at the end of the pause? This link makes me believe that the pause itself is stopping PEPFAR-related work, but it sounds like you think NGOs will have funding to make it through the next month?
Is anyone in EA coordinating a response to the PEPFAR pause? Seems like a very high priority thing for US-based EAs to do, and I'm keen to help if so and start something if not.
This project sounds intriguing, though I haven't yet read about its cost effectiveness on the website. As a side note, if they don't already, I think it would be useful for Charity Entrepreneurship or other non-profit incubators to make a concerted effort to reach out to people like you in the global south.
That's right! It seems like only PEPFAR has been waived, not other life-saving programs! I am working on PEPFAR right now but would urge other EAs to contribute to other aid-related causes
