Centre for Effective Altruism

At the heart of the Centre for Effective Altruism (CEA) is a culture dedicated to fostering a global community committed to solving the world's most pressing problems. The organization's philosophy is rooted in the principles of effective altruism: using evidence and reason to determine the most effective ways to improve the world and then taking action on that basis. This mission drives every aspect of CEA's work, creating a collaborative and intellectually rigorous environment. The team is united by a shared desire to make a significant positive impact, whether that's through reducing global poverty, improving animal welfare, or mitigating existential risks to humanity's future. This shared purpose cultivates a unique culture of deep thinking, open discussion, and a relentless focus on outcomes. CEA believes that by bringing together talented and compassionate individuals, it can help build a radically better world.

To achieve this vision, CEA focuses on building and nurturing the effective altruism community through several key initiatives. It organizes the flagship EA Global conferences, events designed to connect people, share ideas, and inspire impactful careers. The organization also provides crucial support to hundreds of local and student-led effective altruism groups around the world, empowering them to grow their own local communities. Online, CEA maintains vital resources like the EA Forum, a hub for high-quality discussion, and the main effectivealtruism.org website, which serves as an entry point for newcomers. A dedicated community health team works to support members and ensure the community remains a healthy, inclusive, and productive space for all. Through these efforts, CEA aims to create a strong, interconnected network of people who are not just dreaming of a better world, but are actively and effectively working to create it.
