Effective altruism is a philosophy and social movement focused on a single question:
How can we best help others?
How do we choose what to prioritise?
There are so many problems in the world that deciding what to work on can feel overwhelming. Should we focus on people or animals? Curing cancer or combatting climate change?
It can seem impossible to compare such different ways of doing good, but with sufficient evidence and careful reasoning, we can begin to answer these questions.
