It would be great to train a cadre of EAs in political matters, working in NGOs at different levels to accomplish EA goals. I’m kicking around the idea of what that would look like, i.e. an EA NGO that directly interacts with the United Nations, and how we would do training for said organization. That’s something that conceptually is doable with current resources, although not every EA wants to wade hip deep into bureaucracy. I do, and it’s my current job, but it is 100% definitely not for everyone.
