Giving What We Can April 2022 Newsletter

Link post

Hello and welcome to our newsletter!

A few weeks ago the Giving What We Can team attended the Effective Altruism Global conference in London, and we were so thrilled to meet with many of our members in person. We also recently interviewed some exciting guests about effective giving, so stay tuned for the release of those videos through our YouTube channel.

If you didn’t get the chance to connect with us but would like to share your effective giving story, please click this link.

Our team also held a week-long workshop, where amongst other things, we discussed redesigning and improving our website so we can help more people learn to give effectively and provide better resources for our community members like you! We’re excited to get building and share the results with you soon.

In the meantime, meet our team below!

Attend An Event

Meetups

This month we are focusing on Effective Altruism (EA) around the world. We are joined by group leaders from a range of countries and cultures to help us shape a discussion around global EA communities—what are some specific challenges faced in different locations and cultures, or things that might be shared experiences between us all. Lets celebrate the diversity within EA and discuss ways that we can further promote a welcoming atmosphere in our community! Come along to hear a broad range of perspectives and to share your own insights with us.
