Mission
See schedule oeffective altruism is a growing social movement founded in the desire to make the world as good a place as it can be, the use of evidence and reason to find out how to do so, and the audacity to actually try.
Programs
3 programs
Centre for effective altruism supports the effective altruism community. It nurtures spaces where people can explore how to apply the ideas of effective altruism to their future careers, research, or donations. These spaces include events such as the ea global conference, local community groups, and online spaces such as the ea forum.
In furtherance of its mission, the organization began a program to (1) grow the effective altruism community by providing a free space for individuals including university students to gather, network, and learn about effective altruism, and (2) provide a space for university and nonprofit research groups focused on long term risks to humanity (such as biosecurity risks) to meet, work, and advance critical ideas to address these risks.
Longview philanthropy educates philanthropists on charitable giving and conducts research into existential and catastrophic risks. This includes educating people about the world's most important problems, hosting events to connect philanthropists and experts, and researching and recommending grants. 80,000 hours provides research and support to help people enter careers that effectively tackle the world's most pressing problems by providing 1-on-1 career advising, as well as maintaining a blog, a podcast, and a curated job board of high-impact opportunities. Asterisk is a quarterly journal of writing and clear thinking designed to educate the public about things that matter. The forethought foundation aims to promote and communicate academic and nonacademic work that addresses the question of how to use our scarce resources to improve the world as much as possible. Forethought supports and promotes individuals and institutions working on global priorities research, furthers and develops effective altruism and long-termism ideas, and promotes and presents the ideas of effective altruism and long-termism in social and traditional media, in person, and within academia. The centre for the governance of ai ("gov ai") aims to define and map the field of artificial intelligence (ai) governance and address the most important and neglected research questions. Gov ai fellowships and prizes support promising early-career researchers working on ai governance. Gov ai runs seminars and conferences to connect the field of ai governance better and build a thriving global research community.
