Effective Altruism Durham

Hey! I'm Amir, one of the co-leads at EA Durham. I'm currently in my second year of studying Philosophy as an undergraduate, and I'm interested in global health as a cause area. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about EA!

My name is Amber and I’m a third year from Sydney, Australia studying PPE. This year, I’m Vice President and Social Sec for EA Durham - as well as having facilitated both the Arete and IDEA fellowships for the past year and a bit. I’m most interested in Global Health and Development, and would like to move into the development NGO sector at some point later in my career.

Hey! I’m Josh, current final year NatSci student doing Physics and Philosophy, and co-lead of EA Durham. I think EA has the highest concentration of cool people out of any group I've been involved with. I'm interested in basically everything across the EA spectrum. Outside EA you’ll find me playing Dodgeball (it's a real sport, promise!), singing acapella, or (sometimes) doing my degree. :-)

I’m Arthur, Natural Sciences Student at Durham studying Physics and Philosophy! I enjoy running, and really don’t want to be convinced of longtermism! Come to me for any advice on where to look for career or upskilling opportunities!

Greetings, my name is Akshaj and I study Computer Science. Contact me with any questions about the Arete Fellowship! My favourite cause area is AI Safety and my favourite quote is "And so we (could) boldly go, into the whirling knives" (Nick Bostrom is such a theatre kid).
