What is effective altruism?

A philosophy and social movement that uses evidence and careful reasoning to determine the most effective ways to benefit others.

Evidence-based

We use rigorous research and data to identify where we can do the most good with limited resources.

Impartial

We care about the wellbeing of all beings, regardless of species, or their distance from us in time or space.

Maximising impact

We focus on interventions with the highest expected value, considering scale, neglectedness, and tractability.

We are the Belgian community of a global movement

As part of the global effective altruism movement, we bring together people in Belgium to explore ideas, build community, and take action on the world's most pressing challenges.

What we do

We create spaces to meet like-minded people, share ideas, and explore ways of doing good together.
