The group did a case study of deworming activities in ], ] for which the initiative provided assistance. GWWC contrasts the initiative with ], another deworming charity, as follows: the initiative focuses on helping governments carry out deworming programs, rather than carrying out the deworming program itself. Therefore, it bears less of the cost, and is potentially more scalable. However, many of the programs it assists with may have occurred without its help, leading to lower impact relative to the counterfactual.<ref name=gwwc-review>{{cite web\|url = https://www.givingwhatwecan.org/top-charities/deworm-world-initiative/\|title = Deworm the World Initiative\|accessdate = December 4, 2015}}</ref>

Redirect to:

Evidence Action#Deworm the World

This page is a redirect. The following categories are used to track and monitor this redirect:

With history: This is a redirect from a page containing substantive page history. This page is kept as a redirect to preserve its former content and attributions. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated), nor delete this page.
- This template should not be used for redirects having some edit history but no meaningful content in their previous versions, nor for redirects created as a result of a page merge (use {{R from merge}} instead), nor for redirects from a title that forms a historic part of Misplaced Pages (use {{R with old history}} instead).

From a merge: This is a redirect from a page that was merged into another page. This redirect was kept in order to preserve the edit history of this page after its content was merged into the content of the target page. Please do not remove the tag that generates this text (unless the need to recreate content on this page has been demonstrated) or delete this page.
- For redirects with substantive page histories that did not result from page merges use {{R with history}} instead.

To a section: This is a redirect from a topic that does not have its own page to a section of a page on the subject. For redirects to embedded anchors on a page, use {{R to anchor}} instead.

From a subtopic: This is a redirect from a subtopic of the target article or section.
- If the redirected subtopic could potentially have its own article in the future, then also tag the redirect with {{R with possibilities}} and {{R printworthy}}.

When appropriate, protection levels are automatically sensed, described and categorized.
