Announcing a contest: EA Criticism and Red Teaming

Abstract

We’re running a writing contest for critically engaging with theory or work in effective altruism (EA). Submissions can be in a range of formats (from fact-checking to philosophical critiques or major project evaluations); and can focus on a range of subject matters (from assessing empirical or normative claims to evaluating organizations and practices). We plan on distributing $100,000, and we may end up awarding more than this amount if we get many excellent submissions.
