EA Global: London 2026

EAGx India (an [effective altruism (EA)](https://www.effectivealtruism.org/) conference) is back for its third consecutive year this December. Join us in Delhi for a weekend of thought-provoking ideas and conversations sparking collaborations, career pivots and life-long friendships. 

We're looking forward to hosting 300 attendees from India and surrounding Asian EA communities. Speakers include experts from the international EA community who work on important causes ranging from public health and animal welfare to safeguarding civilisation from emerging global catastrophic risks. Whether you're new to EA and its philosophy or already shaping work in key cause areas, this conference is your opportunity to deepen your knowledge, expand your network, and discover actionable ways to make an impact. The event offers ample opportunities for learning through talks, workshops, panel discussions and deepening connections through 1:1 meetings with potential collaborators, funders, recruiters, advisers, hires, and friends!

At this year's conference, we aim to bring focus to:

1. ⁠Promising high-impact initiatives seeking entrepreneurial leaders,
2. Opportunities to build skills and contribute to priority cause areas, and
3. Funding avenues to support and sustain efforts

Alongside these priorities, strengthening our foundation in core EA principles like scope sensitivity and scout mindset will be a key focus. Expect a space where pressing questions are explored with thoughtful disagreement, new ideas are stress-tested, and momentum comes from those who choose to lead.

### What

EAGxAmsterdam is a three-day conference for people who want to maximise their impact through evidence, reason, and collaboration. It’s designed to generate high-quality connections and deepen understanding of EA-related research and practice.

You’ll explore pressing global problems—such as global health and development, animal welfare, global catastrophic risk reduction, ensuring the well-being of future generations, and global priorities research—through talks, workshops, and small-group discussions. The agenda focuses on clear thinking, intellectual rigour, and real-world application.

We prioritise not just content, but conversation. The average attendee makes __10 new connections__. We use Swapcard to help schedule 1-1s and there’s a strong norm of meeting others, not just attending lectures.


### Who

EAGxAmsterdam is for people across the Netherlands and North-West Europe who want to use evidence and reason to make the greatest possible difference.

The event is grounded in a set of principles that guide our community:

- __Prioritisation__: Some ways of doing good are far more effective than others. We aim to identify and focus on what matters most—using numbers, where possible, to estimate and compare the impact of different actions.
- __Impartial altruism__: When trying to do the most good, we aim to give equal moral weight to all—regardless of nationality, species, or time. This often means focusing on those who are most neglected or voiceless.
- __Open truthseeking__: We don’t start with fixed loyalties to causes or methods. We aim to remain curious, update our views in light of evidence, and stay open to radically changing our minds.
- __Collaboration__: Doing good better is a shared endeavour. We aim to be ambitious and intellectually honest while working with integrity, compassion, and respect for others.

If these ideas resonate with you—whether you're a student or a seasoned professional—EAGxAmsterdam offers clarity, challenge, and connection.

We especially welcome attendees with backgrounds in politics and policy, research, organisational leadership, or communications, and those with expertise in pressing global challenges such as global health, animal welfare, catastrophic risks such as AI, or ensuring the wellbeing of future generations.

While the event is primarily aimed at participants in the region, we also encourage applications from individuals in global EA hubs such as London, the Bay Area, Washington, Boston, and Oxford—especially if you’re excited to connect with the growing EA ecosystem in continental Europe.

### Where

Amsterdam is one of Europe’s most globally connected cities—easily reached by train from across the continent and with direct flights from London and major US cities via Schiphol Airport. It’s also one of the largest effective altruism hubs worldwide, according to the EA Survey, with a [co-working space](https://effectiefaltruisme.nl/office/), regular events, and a growing community of professionals working on EA-aligned projects.

The conference will take place at B. Amsterdam, a former PostNL logistics centre turned startup hub. It’s easily accessible by tram from Amsterdam Central Station.

While you're here, you’ll be in a city known for its cultural depth, walkable neighbourhoods, and thoughtful urban design—ideal for curious minds and meaningful conversations.


### Why attend

- Learn from experts applying evidence to real-world impact
- Find collaborators, mentors, or potential hires
- Explore how your skills can contribute to solving high-priority problems
- Be part of a community that values depth, curiosity, and results

See the format in action in this video from [EAGxRotterdam 2022](https://youtu.be/LLCvmGnjHEc?si=foeZAQgBrQnEMAMH).

EA Summit: Istanbul

After our successful inaugural event in 2024, where attendees went on to launch high-impact organizations, start new EA groups across Africa, and secure funding for meaningful projects, we're back for our second annual summit.

The summit connects people from diverse backgrounds who share a commitment to evidence-based approaches to address [pressing global challenges](https://80000hours.org/problem-profiles/) and creating meaningful change. We'll cover key cause areas including global health and poverty alleviation, AI safety, animal welfare, climate change, and more.

The summit welcomes people who are already working or interested in social impact and solving global challenges, and would like to learn more about EA. Whether you're completely unfamiliar with EA or just beginning to explore the community, this summit offers valuable opportunities to connect with like-minded individuals, explore high-impact career paths, and discover concrete ways to maximize your positive impact


### Who should attend

The summit prioritizes attendees from South Africa to build the local community and strengthen connections across the region.

__This event may be for you if:__

__You work or study in the social impact space and are looking for a community of like-minded individuals:__ You might be a student exploring career options, a professional considering a career change, or someone already working on important causes - in areas like public health, development, environmental work, social justice, policy, or nonprofit management - who wants to learn about evidence-based approaches to maximizing impact.

We are interested in speakers with deep domain expertise, regardless of whether they have previously attended an EA conference or not.

Full event details will be available in the Swapcard app closer to the summit. Swapcard also makes it easy to connect with other attendees, and many find these connections to be one of the most rewarding outcomes of the conference. 


### Travel support

Travel support is available but limited, and we can only accommodate some requests. You can apply on [this](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScYeqwO7RLskWD7rvkaovnrehh6nWjLN5DcSgtnav4iJgSrww/viewform?usp=sharing&ouid=108297983616225619063) link. We may not be able to cover all of your travel expenses, and approval depends on available funding rather than an assessment of your potential for impact.For questions about travel assistance, please contact us at hello@effectivealtruism.co.za.

### What is the stewardship program?

A key feature of the summit is our stewardship program, where we connect people newer to the community (fellows) with more experienced members (ambassadors). This ensures that newcomers receive guidance from someone who can help them navigate career decisions, cause prioritization, and next steps in their EA journey.

Ambassadors are matched with fellows based on interests, career stage, and areas of expertise. Each ambassador-fellow pair will have a 1-on-1 conversation during the summit, creating meaningful connections that often continue beyond the event.
