“2023: Magnify Mentoring expands to serve people from underrepresented groups generally. “It includes, but is not limited to, people from low to middle income countries, people of color, people from low-income households, etc.”—The intention here was to pilot a round for people from underrepresented groups not captured by gender. We haven’t reached consensus as to whether we will continue. It depends mostly on the impact asssessment of the round (which concludes this month). While it is accurate to say Magnify initially focused on improving diversity and inclusivity in the EA community, the organization’s strategy is now focused on supporting the careers and wellbeing broadly of people who are working in evidence-based initiaves with or without an EA link. I mention this mostly because I don’t want people to self-select out of applying for mentorship or mentoring with us.

Thanks for the correction! I’ve adjusted the entries, do let me know if there’s anything still not right.
