Overview

Abstract (English)

This Paper examines how the interactions between minority and majority groups affect the willingness of the latter to give to international charity, using Canadian data. By minority group I mean all individuals living in Canada who have non-white ethnic background (Chinese, Africans etc.) and the reverse is true for the majority group. I find that on averages a 10% increase in the population of minorities reduces the predicted probability by 14-17%. Statistically, the estimate is mostly significant but the economic impact is very minimal.
