The Effective Altruism Forum is a platform run by the Centre for Effective Altruism to facilitate discussions relevant to effective altruism and coordinate related projects.
Here are some resources for Forum users:
You can also sign up for the EA Forum Digest, a weekly email that goes out to subscribers to share some of our favorite EA Forum posts from the past week. We usually include some question or request posts, and we’re starting to share a “classic Forum post” per week, too. You can find some recent issues here.
Does the forum have a policy on necro posting (the act of commenting/editing "resurrecting" old material)? I didn't find it in the "how to use the forum" sequence.
It is not forbidden nor even discouraged as far as I am aware.
First and foremost, I would like to sincerely thank all the people working at the CEA, as well as all likemind people working around the globe.
Mine is to seek advise. I want someone to mentor me on how to join a project or even help me start one.
I have spent almost half of my life working with non-governmental organizations on various projects.
Mainly, I have worked in HIV/AIDs, poverty reduction with rural farmers trade Union movement, and informal economy workers, or street workers.
Please, feel free to ask for my CV.

Just trying to make my way thru this new experience. I am the "director" of a self-made project for women and children in Guatemala, Creando Mi Futuro. We have been running for 8 years but since I'm now 86 years old and would like the project to continue after my death, we are planning to register as an NGO in Guatemala (our umbrella NGO is in California). I have for a long time wanted to share ideas with other small non-profits; hope this might be a place to do so.
Amazing activism and committed .At your age you still have impact to your community .thanks
Is there a way to do blog chains on the forum? I'm thinking of something similar to the format on Ribbonfarm.com
Ah I figured it out! There are sequences! This is amazing! Thank you for this. I'm going to experiment to see if that gets the feature set I'm looking for: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/library
Again I have to say: this forum is really well done!
