Resources like these can be used by pulling existing representations of crucial information and bringing them together as a sequential, coherent whole. I don’t want to create any unnecessary redundancy. At the same time, though, information like this should be concentrated in a single spot online, or at least presented in a way that meets the needs of those who are finding EA inaccessible.
I’m aware in the last year or two the Centre for Effective Altruism (CEA) and others have been trying to redress this by creating new resources, like the resource centre and different programs/courses. Given that those resources are designed to address the exact problem that EA is not sufficiently accessible, those are the resources I’m most concerned that this effort could just cause confusion about.
I’ll seek feedback throughout the effort, including from particular organizations as pertinent for different subjects, and failing that, I’m guessing some others will recommend suggestions or correct mistakes along the way. It can be done in a gradual, semi-coordinated way. I figure if it’s done well enough, different groups might want to integrate parts of the sequence into existing resource portals off of the EA Forum too.
No, this is great. Thanks for sharing.
