Introducing Effective Altruism Australia Environment

Combat climate change by donating to evidence-based, cost-effective, and high-leverage organisations.

Effective altruism is all about answering one question...

How can we do the most good?​

By using evidence and reason, we examine a wide range of causes and actions to figure out how to make the greatest impact. For many Australians, it turns out that donating money in support of interventions to alleviate poverty is one of the best ways to do good.

What we do

Effective Altruism Australia partners with charities evaluated to be implementing the most transparent, cost-effective, and evidence-based programs for saving and improving lives. Your donation will go directly to support their programs, thereby helping to end poverty as soon as possible.

Australia is a lucky country. We among the richest countries and average Australian incomes are higher than 97.5% of the world. This puts us in an excellent position to improve the lives. We see ourselves as part of a global community committed to saving and improving the lives of people everywhere.

Our impact

Since founding in 2016, Effective Altruism Australia has granted more than A$10 million in donations to our various partner charities, including upwards of A$4 million in direct cash transfers and more than A$2 million to anti-parasitic worm interventions.
