We speak to Nicolas Laing, a doctor from New Zealand. Nick has managed rural Health Centers for 10 years in Northern Uganda through his charity, OneDay Health. He first became passionate about unreached areas after seeing the huge numbers of rural citizens in Northern Uganda not covered by either the private or public healthcare system. Nicolas initiated and managed the first 15 One Day Health centers launched, which have grown to 40+.
Some things we touch on in this episode:
Healthcare black holes — what they are, how Nick finds them and supports those living in them.
OneDay Health and cost-effectiveness estimates (see here for Nick’s excellent EA forum BOTEC calculations on this).
Nick’s dream for Oneday Health.
How Nick’s faith has influenced Nick’s decision to pursue medicine.
Radical stewardship of money and how Nick lives that out.
Effective Altruism and what both Christianity and Effective Altruism can learn from each other.
Nick’s career advice for young Christians who want to have an impact.
