The AEBr Summit, the first major event of Effective Altruism Brazil, will take place on June 29, 2024, in the city of São Paulo, at the Innovation Center of the University of São Paulo (INOVA USP). Our main objective is to expand and strengthen the Brazilian EA community by inviting both newcomers and experienced members to join us for a day of inspiring talks, workshops, and networking!
Registrations are open until June 15!
Why an AEBr Summit?
1. The EA movement in Brazil has grown in recent years, with new local and university groups in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. This AEBr Summit will be an occasion to promote a sense of community among all members in Brazil, connect people and organizations, and publicize and strengthen the movement.
2. Many people from Brazil face barriers such as visa issues and costs to attend international EAG(x) conferences in the USA, Mexico, and Europe. This hinders Brazilian talents from better integrating into the international community, wasting opportunities for the impact of one of the world's largest nations.
Vision for AEBr Summit
Our main objective is to foster meaningful connections between EAs and others focused on maximizing their impact. The event is also aimed at newcomers to EA, helping them discover the next steps in their EA journey and join a supportive community dedicated to doing good.
With this in mind, the AEBr Summit aims to:
Elevate the profile of EA in Brazil.
Create and strengthen connections between Brazilian EA.
Grow the EA community in Brazil by welcoming new people interest in effective altruism.
Who is the AEBr Summit for?
This conference is for you if:
You live in Brazil, are new to EA, and are eager to learn more and connect with like-minded people. Most of our talks will be introductory and cover a wide range of topics.

Talks and workshops on pressing problems that the EA community is currently trying to solve
The opportunity to meet, share advice with other EAs, and engage with social events around the Summit.
