How can we make the world a little bit better? The growing movement known as ‘effective altruism’ is all about figuring out how to get better at doing good. How much of your income should you donate? Which charity gives you the most bang for your buck? And how should you use your career to maximize your impact? Rutger Bregman will discuss it all with philosopher Lisa Herzog, economist Robert Dur and effective altruism expert James Herbert during this evening!
