What is the best way for you to help build a brighter tomorrow? The Effective Altruism community has embarked on a search to find out how we can use our time and money in the most impactful ways. Amarins explains how you can apply these ideas to do as much good as possible with your career.
Amarins is a co-director of Effective Altruism Netherlands. When Amarins was a student, she came across an idea that radically changed her ambitions: the effective altruism movement. This movement is founded on three pillars: the desire to do good, the wish to do so using a scientific approach and the audacity to act on it. Over the past years, she has worked on this in various capacities - now taking on the challenge of helping the people in the Netherlands materialize their ambitions for impact. During her talk, we will take a deep dive into social impact and how we can leverage our careers to change the world. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
