As we begin a new year, we’re sharing a classic from the Giving Done Right archive in which Phil and Grace talk with Paul Niehaus, co-founder and chairman of GiveDirectly. Paul discusses the power of direct cash transfers – how they work, why trusting those in need with cash can be extremely effective, and when certain issue areas might warrant a different philanthropic approach. They also discuss the effective altruism movement and how to consider giving domestically versus internationally.<h3>Additional Resources</h3><a href="https://www.givedirectly.org/">GiveDirectly</a><a href="https://www.givedirectly.org/research-on-cash-transfers/">Cash transfer research via GiveDirectly</a><a href="https://www.givewell.org/">GiveWell</a><a href="https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300219869/most-good-you-can-do">The Most Good You Can Do: How Effective Altruism is Changing Ideas About Living Ethically</a> by Peter Singer<a href="https://mitsloan.mit.edu/ideas-made-to-matter/how-a-universal-basic-income-stabilized-kenyans-bad-times">Universal Basic Income project in Kenya</a>
