Want to know why aid orgs aren't bigger fans of GiveWell and GiveDirectly type interventions? Having run the Department for International Development (DFID) ($20b/yr budget), Rory shares what the priorities of aid orgs like and what he would like them to be. Rory speaks to how we connect the pipes between EA ideas/evidence and bureaucrats. Rory Stewart was an MP (Member of Parliament) in the British Government between 2010 and 2019. He's a senior advisor for GiveDirectly and the host of the Rest Is Politics podcast. Rory's bestselling memoir "Politics On The Edge" was published in 2023, and Rory is currently the Brady–Johnson Professor of the Practice of Grand Strategy at Yale's Jackson School of Global Affairs.
