Warwick University's official Effective Altruism society
What if you could help stop the next pandemic? Or tackle other pressing problems like climate change, mass incarceration, nuclear war, global poverty, or transformative AI?
Part of a global movement, the Effective Altruism Society helps students figure out how to do the most good with our lives and careers by combining evidence and compassion to find the best opportunities for improving the world.
We host a variety of reading groups, from the Introductory Fellowship, to deeper dives into specific topics, such as AI Safety and Rationality.
Coworking is a place to connect with other EAs, collaborate on projects, or just a quiet space to work independently. Held every Weds from 4-6pm in FAB3.28.We also hold some laid back socials such as coffee mornings, picnics and groups runs!
Learn from experts in their field, covering a variety of topics from AI to biosecurity to global development.We also run occaisional hackathons and career workshops.
Our society is free for members of Warwick University's student union, so don't hesitate to officially join us to get our emails and keep up to date!
