Discover ways to get involved in effective altruism in Australia
Connect with your local group
Using evidence and reason, the effective altruism community—an extensive global network of individuals, researchers, philanthropists and nonprofits—is uncovering ways we can use our limited time and resources to tackle the world’s most pressing problems. In Australia, it turns out donating to rigorously vetted, cost-effective charities in poverty alleviation and climate change is one of the best ways we can do good. That’s one area we can help at Effective Altruism Australia.
