Counterfactual EA Success Stories Examples

By Sam Robinson 🔸 @ 2022-08-04T17:36 (+7)

Does anyone have a list of counterfactual success stories that have arisen directly from EA-related work? I can think of a couple (GiveWell donation statistics seem an obvious answer) but I would love a list or some examples. I want to use this for:

1. General conversations about EA in day-to-day life. I often hear the response that EA seems too philosophical; citing examples of counterfactual goods seems like a good way to mitigate this narrative, though I would welcome any suggestions of other techniques here. 
2. Community building (I run my student group in St Andrews). I think it would be useful to have some tangible examples I can give in an introduction talk and conversations within fellowships. 
3. My own curiosity and general knowledge!

I really appreciate any help provided!
