Introduction Fellowship

Effective Altruism Tilburg is running a free 5-week fellowship to learn about how you can do the most good with your life and career. Participants will combine the head and the heart, applying rigor and rationality to questions involving moral philosophy and impact. You will read short selected readings meet for weekly discussions with fellow participants under the guidance of an experienced facilitator.

Below you can see an overview of the topics we will cover:

We hope to provide an engaging, personalized, and enjoyable experience for each participant. The question of how we can improve the world is very complex, and we certainly don’t have all the answers. For this reason, our intention is not only to teach, but also to encourage discussion between participants and approach disagreements as interesting opportunities for novel insights.

Our goal at EA Tilburg is to help students in Tilburg find the best ways in which they can have a positive impact on the world. For anyone interested in the ideas of effective altruism, the Introduction Fellowship is the best (and in our opinion the most fun) place to start! This fellowship is a stepping stone to getting involved with the local and global EA community. It will enable you to identify more specific topics relevant to your interests and career and to apply for EA conferences all over the world.

Got any questions? Feel free to contact us.

We will start the next round of the fellowship as soon as we have accepted enough participants. Please apply if you are interested in joining and we will let you know when the fellowship starts. In the mean time, also consider joining our other events.
