I can’t find any recent research on the matter, despite their 2012 intent to reassess it as a priority area. I think it would allay my concerns that EA org’s neglect nutrition as a focus area, and potentially allay many lay fears, if there was more disclosed about the evidence for nutritrional interventions. Much of academic development studies focussed on issues like access to marketplaces and other agriculture related things, and we may be abe to convert people from those interest points by speaking to their existing knowledge.
In fact, there seems to be so much important comment in the EA space that gets mentioned, then not followed up from. It’s really confusing. it’s unclear what the current, open problems are, not relative priorities in the research agendas.
To illustrate that I’m not just claiming there is a general problem from one example, where are the updates on the CEA’s views on givewell? I could go on, but it’s easier just to go through the relevant blogs of EA orgs and tracking back through time. I’m not aware of my concern being raised elsewhere.
Is Project Healthy Children’s recommendation by EA orgs other than Givewell the case for neglect for nutritrional interventions at Givewell?.
