Introductory Course Meetup with Inspiring Impact Talks! 🚀

​We are excited to invite you to a joint meetup for all current Effective Altruism introductory course participants. This event is designed to get to know each other, bridge the gap between learning and action and become inspired!

​We’ll be joined by inspiring impact makers who will share their journeys of using EA frameworks to make a significant global difference, and what they learned in doing this. Beyond the short talks, this is a fantastic chance to connect with like-minded professionals, share ideas, and build a stronger community of effective altruists in the Netherlands.

​We will make sure that there are snacks but this will not be a full meal.
