Abundant resources on the Effective Altruism Resource Hub

By Catherine Low, Michał Trzęsimiech, Sebastian Becker and Vaidehi Agarwalla

The Effective Altruism Resource Hub, a part of the EA Hub, contains a large range of resources for members of the EA community. A team of community members have been writing and collating these resources over the last year and will continue to improve and expand the collection over time.

The first two sections, Learn and Take Action, are intended for anyone interested in EA. Highlights include:

• Reading lists, a glossary and an EA organisations list
• A list of online sub-communities
• Resources on sustaining an EA lifestyle
• A guide on communicating EA concepts (this is an update of the “Pitch Guide”)
• Links for donors and volunteers

The last sections now form the largest collection of resources and written guides for local group organisers, divided into four sections:

• Start a group - tips for starting city and university groups
• Running a group - information on leadership, strategy, community health, 1-on-1s, support and more
• Events - resources for running EA group events
• Graphics - editable graphics to use for advertising

We'd like your help!

The Effective Altruism Resource Hub is a community project and anyone can contribute by making suggestions and comments, by clicking on the link at the bottom of each page. We also have a small team of regular volunteers, and are interested in hearing from prospective volunteers that have experience organising EA groups, graphic design skills, copy-editing skills, or who just obsessively keep up to date with EA content!
