effective altruism ea community both ea global and eagx conferences typically last around 2 3 days they involve talks workshops discussions and many chances to network with people interested in effective altruism the conferences can range in size from several hundred to over a thousand attendees although the events are very similar there are some differences between ea global and eagx events for example ea global is organized by the centre for effective altruism while eagx is organized by members of the ea community with support from the events team see below for more information what s the difference between an ea global and eagx both ea global eag and eagx events are quite similar they are opportunities for people interested in effective altruism to make connections exchange ideas and attend talks and workshops over the course of a few days just like there are ted and tedx conferences there are eag and eagx conferences the x indicates that this is a community organised eag event ea global conferences are organized by the centre for effective altruism and people from all over the world attend these the team at cea is responsible for choosing the content processing admissions and the event s production eagx events on the other hand are mostly community organized with some support from the ea global team the target audience for eagx events is broader than eag but tends to have a more regional focus cea provides funding and support to eagx events eg access to our event app but the local community organisers are responsible for choosing content processing admissions and the event s production who should attend an ea global or eagx conference ea global and eagx events are designed to help members of the effective altruism community make progress on the world s pressing problems by sharing new thinking and research as well as starting or coordinating on important projects we have an admissions system for ea global and eagx events to help us select for applicants who seem most able to help each other pursue these goals you can read more about what we re looking for here or the admissions section of the faq but in short ea global is mostly aimed at people who have a solid understanding of the core ideas of ea and who are taking significant actions based on those ideas many ea global attendees are already professionally working on effective altruism inspired projects or figuring out how best to work on such projects eagx conferences are primarily for people who are familiar with the core ideas of effective altruism interested in learning more about what to do with these ideas from the region or country where the conference is taking place or living there if you want to attend but are unsure about whether to apply please err on the side of applying we sometimes admit people who view themselves as less experienced we also sometimes admit people who are less invested in effective altruism than other applicants but whose professional background or studies make them well placed to help other attendees at the conference achieve their goals you must be 18 or older at the time of the event in order to attend eag and eagx events in the past we allowed under 18s to attend with a chaperone unfortunately this is no longer allowed due to our current insurance policy should i volunteer how do i sign up to volunteer volunteers are crucial to the success of our conferences before ea global volunteers are asked to do 2 5 hours of pre event training during the event volunteers generally complete one 4 6 hour shift each day besides these time commitments volunteers participate in the conference as all attendees do for this reason we require volunteers to be accepted to the conference as an attendee before they can join the volunteer team volunteers help the conference run smoothly in a variety of ways such as liaising with speakers welcoming attendees managing the content rooms and helping attendees navigate the venue in the past volunteers have found connecting with each other and the conference organisers to be extremely valuable we view this benefit as a crucial aspect of the volunteering process we think volunteering is particularly useful for attendees who want to test their operations or event running skills attendees who would like to help ensure the conference is a success first time attendees who don t expect to be completely booked with meetings attendees who would like to meet other volunteers or work with the organising team to volunteer simply express interest in the application or registration form for ea global or email us at hello eaglobal org how much will it cost to attend ea global typically requires attendees to buy a ticket for events that require tickets the default price is 500 though we offer reduced price and free tickets to those who might need them students and attendees seeking work will have an opportunity to request a free ticket as part of the application form some of our ea global events are free to attend this will be made clear on the registration page for the relevant event we do ask that you consider donating and when registering for the conference you will have an opportunity to do this just like our ticketed events our suggested donation is 400 500 eagx events are organised separately and ticket prices will vary by event most of our eagx events have the option to attend for free this will be made clear on the registration page for the relevant event we do ask that you consider donating and you will have an opportunity to do this when registering for the conference please see the relevant event for the details our events cost between 500 and 2 000 per person to run with eagx events on the lower side and ea global events on the higher side there are relatively few venues that are well located and large enough to accommodate our events and the costs to host events at these venues are often high with large line items like catering and audio visual av services heavily marked up we re working to reduce these costs recently we ve reduced the number of meals we serve at our events negotiated more competitive av quotes limited how much travel support we provide to attendees and identified cheaper venues still we ask that attendees consider supporting us so that we can continue to run these events for the benefit of the effective altruism community we also offer some travel support if you need travel support you should let us know during your application there is a designated question about this requesting travel support does not lower your chance of being accepted to the conference you can see more on travel support here and in faqs below do you offer travel support please see our travel support page here for more details attendees may use their own funds or a sponsor such as their employer or university to cover travel and accommodation for the conference while we d like for attendees to use these funding sources whenever possible others may need financial support in order to attend if you need travel support let us know during your application there is a designated question about this requesting travel support does not lower your chance of being accepted to the conference please note that unfortunately we are not able to approve all requests applicants who require support are strongly encouraged to apply however we ask that you refrain from making plans based on the assumption that funding will be provided if you have any questions please contact
