Considering how important politics are to most EA cause areas, I find it surprising how little attention political work gets among EAs. I get the feeling that because politics are blocked from the Forum homepage, and because EA fellowships fail to mention high-leverage political work, young EAs often assume that this is not a high impact space without looking into it themselves. 

Luckily, this is changing. 

There is a growing movement of EAs recognizing the huge importance of politics, and realizing it's not as intractable as many of us assume. Over the past few months, we have joined together with EA club leaders from schools like Middlebury, the University of Michigan, Princeton, and MIT to create multiple curriculum/content options for EA groups to use exploring this cause area. What we've put together: 

• One-week fellowship curriculum - easily added on to your existing intro or advanced fellowships! Can also be used to guide a reading-based general meeting.
• Three-week fellowship curriculum - for a deeper dive into the importance, tractability, and neglectedness of democracy preservation & U.S. politics.
• Slides presentation - for a presentator-led meeting on democracy preservation, with discussion & activities built in. 

Link to content. 

To reduce the friction of incorporating these resources even further, we are willing to video call into your meetings to give the presentation or guide the discussion. Just let us know how we can help! 

We would be thrilled if your club incorporated these resources into your current intro fellowships, especially considering the 2026 midterm elections are just around the corner. 

Thanks!
