Dinner
---------------------------------------------

Dinner takeaway options at IFC include Shake Shack, Tim Ho Wan, City Super, Omusubi etc.
You can join us anytime between 7:00pm to 9:00pm.

At 8pm, we will start informal discussions on a few selected EA forum posts. It would be fantastic if you read 1 or 2 posts before the event.
For new joiners who would like to explore Effective Altruism:
1. The world is much better. The world is awful. The world can be much better. (6mins)
2. Scope insensitivity: failing to appreciate the numbers of those who need our help (6mins)
For those familiar with EA topics:
1. Munk AI debate: confusions and possible cruxes (9 mins)
2. Evidence of effectiveness and transparency of a few effective giving organisations (8mins)
3. Longtermists are perceived as power-seeking (2mins)
What is EAHK social?
---------------------------------------------
EAHK's Monthly Socials aim to provide a welcoming space for everyone in the EA community to socialise and make new connections. We usually do meals, and indoor or outdoor activities such as bowling or hiking on a monthly basis. So, whether you are new to EA, or are familiar already, you are most welcome to join us.
