Effective Altruism Amsterdam

Most of us want to make a positive difference in the world. We engage with social, systemic and environmental issues, and are moved to address them. However, turing this ambition into action can be challenging: how to best contribute?

Effective Altruism Amsterdam (EAA) aims to bring together a community of impact driven students and provide them with access to ideas, resources, and support to pursue an impactful career. As EAA, we strive to make students aware of their potential and ambitious to act accordingly. Through a community of like minded people, students are provided with the resources, network, and mindset essential to making high impact decisions in life.

Contributing to a better world, effectively.

We are part of a global movement of students who want to contribute to a better world.

The Effective Altruism Student Network is a community of over 200 (student) organizations worldwide. In an EA student organisation, like EA Amsterdam, you will engage with other students who are excited about making a positive impact.

EA organisations are everywhere! From the Netherlands to England, to the Philippines, to Abu Dhabi, to the USA, to Colombia… EA Amsterdam represents this global community at the Universiteit Van Amsterdam (UvA) & the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU).
