Rethink Priorities: Global Health & Development

Every year, more than $210 billion is spent on global health and development, but much of it is allocated inefficiently. The most effective interventions can be 10–100 times more impactful per dollar than typical programs.

At Rethink Priorities, our Global Health & Development team conducts rigorous, independent research to uncover these opportunities and equip funders, policymakers, and nonprofits with clear, actionable guidance on how to allocate resources more effectively. Our work has helped redirect millions toward more effective programs. For instance, one major foundation shifted $8 million to a more cost-effective lead intervention based on our research. With your support, even more funding can flow to interventions that save and improve the most lives per dollar.
