This is also your chance to meet the EA Amsterdam community; a group of students and young professionals exploring how to tackle the world's most pressing problems through evidence-based approaches.
Effective altruism is a research field, philosophy, and social movement. It is about using evidence and reason to to find and pursue the best ways to improve the world.
