Jewish Perspectives on Effective Altruism

Hosted By: Effective Altruism for Jews

Hillel Ehrenreich, the director of Effective Altruism for Jews, will discuss the connections and tensions between Jewish tradition and the principles of Effective Altruism, a movement focused on optimizing ways to help others and implementing those strategies. The presentation will explore how Effective Altruism aligns with Jewish values, what Jewish texts say about obligations to the global poor, animals, and future generations, and how to balance Jewish versus global priorities. These themes will address the intersection of ancient teachings with modern ethical practices.
