Hello! I'm Toby. I'm Content Manager at CEA. I work with the Online Team to make sure the Forum is a great place to discuss doing the most good we can. You'll see me posting a lot, authoring the EA Newsletter and curating Forum Digests, making moderator comments and decisions, and more. 

Before working at CEA, I studied Philosophy at the University of Warwick, and worked for a couple of years on a range of writing and editing projects within the EA space. Recently I helped run the Amplify Creative Grants program, to encourage more impactful podcasting and YouTube projects. You can find a bit of my own creative output on my blog, and my podcast feed.

How I can help others

Reach out to me if you're worried about your first post, want to double check Forum norms, or are confused or curious about anything relating to the EA Forum.

Agree react to this comment if you'd be interested in taking part in a virtual co-working session (probably in gather.town) to get some accountability on writing a post for debate week. 

I'm starting to put together plans for this year's Giving Season events (roughly, start of November to end of December). If you remember the events last year, it'd be cool to know:
1- What was memorable to you from that period?
2- Was anything in particular valuable for you or for your donation decisions?
3- Is there anything you would expect to see this year?
4- What would you hope to see this year?
Thanks!

Just put my year to date donations into this- it seems like a really great opportunity. Thanks for sharing, and good luck!
 

This is the backlink checker. It's pretty helpful for seeing whether your posts (or in my case, events) have been mentioned anywhere outside of the Forum. 

Thanks for fleshing that out jenn! (and for running the meeting). I'll feed this back to my team. 
I found the meetup either via a google search for "AI Welfare Debate Week" or a backlink checker. 

Hi John, welcome to the EA Forum!
Let me know if you'd like any tips for navigating the Forum/ finding what you're looking for on here. 
All the best, 
Toby (Content Manager for the EA Forum). 

Thanks for writing this Nick, I found it really inspiring. 
I'm not a Christian, but can definitely admire the authenticity, sincerity and dedication of people who take faith seriously, and repeatedly inquire about what it asks of them. Forever needing more of those values in my own life, and it's motivational to read about people who succeeded in holding them. 
PS- the Benjamin Lay day link at the end links to this post (the one we are on right now), not to the event.

Late to this conversation, but I like the debate idea. A simple way to get a cost-effectiveness slider might be just to have the statement be "On the current margin $100m should go to:" and the slider go from 100% animal welfare to 100% global health, with a mid-point being 50/50. 

Welcome! Have you checked out the recent pandemic preparedness essays from Asimov press? I was reading them today- you might enjoy them. 
Also, let me know if you'd like any tips for navigating the Forum/ finding what you're looking for on here.
