How can we do the most good?

We're a community of University of Toronto students dedicating our careers to solving the world's most pressing problems. We think you should too.

  • How much should we prioritise the welfare of future humans?
  • Do digital minds matter?
  • How plausible is a global pandemic?
  • What values do we want a superintelligent AI to have?
  • How do we incorporate moral uncertainty into our decisions?
  • What are the most cost-effective ways to target factory farming?

Come to our next meetup

Our meetups are open to everyone — no reading, no commitment, and no prior experience with effective altruism needed. We post the next one on Discord as soon as it’s set.

  • Casual socials and discussion groups through the term
  • Talks from people working on these problems full-time
  • Philosophical discussions on how to do good
