Abstract

This research paper presents a comprehensive cost-effectiveness analysis of various philanthropic interventions aimed at improving global well-being. The interventions studied include AMF, GiveDirectly, Deworm the World, END Fund, SCI Foundation, Sightsavers, Malaria Consortium, and Helen Keller International. The analysis assesses the cost-effectiveness of these interventions in achieving specific health and development outcomes, considering factors such as marginal cost, lives saved, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) averted, and return on investment. The findings provide valuable insights for philanthropists and policymakers seeking to maximize the impact of their donations on global health and well-being – AI-generated abstract.
