Early life and education
MacAskill was born William Crouch, in 1987, and grew up in Glasgow.[6][1] MacAskill was educated at Hutchesons' Grammar School in Glasgow.[11] At the age of 15, after learning about how many people were dying as a result of AIDS, he made the decision to work towards becoming wealthy and giving away half of his money.[12] At the age of 18, MacAskill read Peter Singer's 1972 essay "Famine, Affluence, and Morality", which later became a guiding principle for his life.[6]

MacAskill earned a BA in philosophy at Jesus College, Cambridge, in 2008 followed by a BPhil at St Edmund Hall, Oxford in 2010. He went on be awarded a DPhil at St Anne's College, Oxford in 2014 (spending a year as a visiting student at Princeton University), supervised by John Broome and Krister Bykvist.[2] He then took up a junior research fellowship at Emmanuel College, Cambridge,[13] before taking an associate professorship at Lincoln College, Oxford.

MacAskill (born Crouch) argues that men should consider changing their last names when they get married. He and his ex-wife changed their last name to "MacAskill", her maternal grandmother's maiden name.[43] MacAskill and his former wife authored articles together on topics of ethical debate.[44][45] They separated in 2015 and later divorced.[1]

Out of concern for animal welfare, MacAskill has experienced both anxiety and depression.[1] MacAskill lives in Oxford
