We help you use your career to have the largest positive impact.
What is Effective Altruism Cambridge?
EA Cambridge is a community of students who want to do good and push themselves to do better than they otherwise would.
Concretely, that means:
Events where you'll meet people with careers doing good in the world
Project opportunities that let you start making an impact now
Educational fellowships that help you think through how you can impact the world
One-on-one career support to help you figure out where you can have the most effect …. and actually get there!
Our Aim
We aim get people thinking about how they want to have a positive impact on the world.
How are they going to approach that task?
To do this, we provide a fuzzy container of people and ideas, so you can develop your beliefs and outlook, alongside other people who are learning. We all want to do our part to do good in the world, and if we come together as a community, we can do so much more than alone.
We want to get you thinking and challenge beliefs you may not realise you hold. If you come here and disagree with us, that’s OK. We also want to continually improve and find better ways of doing things.
