EA Summit: Wellington
EA Summit: Wellington is a one-day conference bringing together people from across Aotearoa New Zealand who are interested in doing the most good for others.
Whether you’re completely new to effective altruism or already actively involved, the Summit is an opportunity to explore big global challenges, hear from people working on them, and connect with others who care about having a meaningful impact.
Programme
There will be opportunities to explore a range of topics including:
Global health and development
Animal welfare
AI safety and existential risk
Cause prioritisation and decision-making
Policy and advocacy
Effective giving and philanthropy
Using your career to have a positive impact
The day will include talks, workshops, and plenty of opportunities for discussion and networking.
Alongside the main conference, we’re planning community events in Wellington on Friday evening and Sunday, plus an optional post-Summit dinner on Saturday night.
