When? Thursday 11/3, 7:30 PM - 10 PM

Where? The Buzz Mill, 1505 Town Creek Dr, Austin, TX

This week we will discuss the post Measuring Good Better which summarizes the approaches various EA-aligned organizations working on global health and wellbeing take to measuring good.

With the giving season beginning this is a great time to learn about how GiveWell, Open Philanthropy Project, Happier Lives Institute, Founders Pledge, and Innovations for Poverty Action identify the best giving opportunities and allocate funds as cost-effective as they can to save and improve lives.

As usual, the second half of the event will be unstructured socializing about effective altruism.

Parking? The Buzz Mill has parking, but if it fills up you can park at the Walgreens nearby. (The Dairy Queen tows!)
