Yeah, I think I will stick with self-improvement for now. It seems to me that almost everything too public will have great risks. Hopefully, a more traditional EA could be able to make EA more visible within the community. Thanks for the help.

Thanks, I’ve sent her an email.
(UPDATE: She does not know any EA’s in Saudi.)
I did the Singer course, and assuming I have an average knowledge about EA , I didn’t gain much from it except maybe getting excited about kidney donations. Also I have participated in the community more after taking the course, if that counts as “getting ahead”.
Unfortunately, I’m still a student so it doesn’t apply in my case.
This post mentions learning more about EA as a way to become a better charity entrepreneur, maybe the same principle applies to getting an EA job.
I would suggest auditing the course and (only) watching videos about the unfamiliar topics.
…and continued the philosophical tradition of “On Politics,” Machiavelli’s “The Prince,” Hobbes’ “Leviathan.” Do you mean Aristotle’s “Politics”? Also, are you going to discuss the Complexity science approach, (if such an approach exists) or is that irrelevant? Great sequence by the way!
