In late November, NPR’s Planet Money covered USAID, GiveWell, and Effective Altruism in a way that feels surprisingly uncritical of the movement. Worth remembering that EA has drawn substantial criticism, from its philosophical assumptions to its real‑world impacts. Interesting episode, but not the whole picture. #Economics #EffectiveAltruism #Nonprofits #PolicyStudies #NPR #Givewell #USAID

📜 We've got a new article out 📜
*Angst M, Müller NN, Walker V. Automated extraction of discourse networks from large volumes of media data* (open access)
https://doi.org/10.1017/nws.2025.4
As part of our sustainability.discourses project, we developed an automated method to gather and track discourse networks around urban sustainable mobility, based on media data.
The article describes the approach in detail and reports an evaluation of the internal validity (do we measure what we ourselves think we measure) of the pipeline.
tl;dnr: Automating discourse network data gathering can work well to capture broader tendencies. In many cases, it is likely not worth investing in automating data gathering to understand discourse however.
Want to see the daily updated pipeline in action? Check out the web apps and resources here: https://sustainability.discourses.ch/en/

Second day of presentations by #UBC Master in Public Policy and Global Affairs capstone project teams. Amazing to see all the work teams have been doing around the world/on many topics/with clients in many sectors over the past 9/4 months.
See https://www.instagram.com/p/Cq_or1sPris/ for some photos from yesterday's presentations.
For a sense of past projects, see https://sppga.ubc.ca/master-public-policy-global-affairs/experiential-learning/global-policy-project/global-policy-project-catalogue/

@taylorlorenz given that the office in Brussels has now been closed, & we are hearing he is flirting with breaches of the GDPR (which can have large financial implications) if he pushes this through, will this be the end? Are there enough staff left to provide a sufficient amount of content moderation to meet EU standards?
There is also the added issue that the layoffs likely breached employment laws here too...

@LinneaLaestadius Yes, I totally agree. Unless the journal was really important for placement, for engaging in a practice like this I would move it down the list. #AcWri #Academia #AcademicMastodon #Mastodon #Publications #Research #PolicyStudies #PublicHealthPolicy
