EAGxBerkeley 2024 will take place September 7-8 at Lighthaven in Berkeley, CA. The conference will focus on a diverse range of cause areas, local community building, and knowledge sharing. It will offer networking, workshops, presentations, and small group gatherings for around 500 attendees dedicated to addressing some of the world’s greatest challenges.
Why attend?
EAG(x) events have a track record of fostering new connections in the effective altruism community. Attendees receive the necessary information or encouragement to apply for a job, an internship, or a program that supports their further development.
Connect: Meet like-minded people passionate about making a positive impact.
Learn: Engage with groundbreaking ideas through workshops, talks, and interviews.
Grow: Map out your professional path, identify next steps, and develop your application skills.
Find work: Introduce yourself to impactful organizations looking for new hires.
Should you apply?
EAGxBerkeley is organized especially for EA communities in the Bay Area and in the Western USA. We are also open and happy to host people from the rest of the United States or even internationally, but keep in mind we will prioritize applicants who have a stake in our region. But as always — when unsure, please apply.
Schedule
More detailed information on the agenda, speakers, and content will be available closer to the conference via Swapcard and updates to this webpage.

Travel support
We are prepared to reimburse travel expenses for some attendees. Travel support funds are limited, so please only request funding if you would not be able to attend without it.

Accessibility
Unfortunately, Lighthaven does not meet ADA standards for wheelchair accessibility.
Lighthaven is a beautiful, old hotel in the center of Berkeley. There are many aspects about this space that we are excited about, but one significant challenge is the lack of existing accessibility for individuals with disabilities affecting physical mobility.
If you would like to attend this conference and have accessibility requests, please email us at berkeley@eaglobalx.org. You don’t have to email us when applying, and may wait until registering for the conference to do so.
We aim to provide assistance with whatever accessibility needs arise, such that all applicants who are accepted to the conference can attend.
