Join us in Christchurch this September for a day-long introduction and deep-dive into effective altruism.
How is an EA Summit different from EAGx?
EAGx conferences help people who already have some EA context accelerate their path to impact. Recruiting less engaged people and driving growth is an outcome we see, but it isn’t a core focus. EA Summits, on the other hand, have “introduce EA concepts” and “inspire newcomers to get involved” as primary goals alongside serving those already in impactful positions.
To facilitate newcomers joining and help get them up-to-speed, the Summit will have a minimal application process, introductory content, and a strong cohort of mentors to guide and provide context. We also aim to make the event worth attending for mentors by providing other opportunities for them.
