Effective Altruism Finland ry

Our mission is to grow a community in Finland that is aware of effective altruism, puts it into practice in their lives and helps others to do good with impact. EA's organisations in Finland bring people together to discuss ideas about effective altruism and organise activities that support direct impact and effective giving.

Activities

We organise various events throughout the year to raise awareness of effective altruism in Finland and to support more effective philanthropy. Everyone interested in effective altruism is welcome to join us!

The discussion evenings will delve into topics related to effective altruism such as personal values, effective means of influence, animal rights, goal setting and longtermism. Throughout the year, we also organise training sessions and camps.

Highlights from our activities:

• We provide career advice.

• We organise an intro programme with local groups, a multi-week introductory course on effective altruism.

• We organise various events, workshops, panel discussions and reading circles.

• We support the creation and growth of new groups in Finland and work closely with other local EA groups.

• We maintain the Lahjoittaminen.fi website.

• We work closely with the Nordic effective altruism communities.

The best way to keep up to date with our events is to follow our events calendar on the homepage and join our email list.

EA Finland uses Telegram as its discussion platform. Join the channel.
