What should I expect? What will the retreat be like?
- The retreat will be: a fun, fulfilling, impactful weekend with likeminded peers and professionals thinking about how to help the world. You'll get opportunities to learn about some of their ideas in talks and workshops, share your own ideas in discussions, get/give advice in paired 1-on-1 conversations, and connect everyone during socials.
- We've designed the program to have a mix of focused days and chill nights, and we think it'll be an awesome intro to the EA community beyond your own universities!
- That said, nothing in the retreat program will be mandatory except the opening talk, paired 1-on-1s, and closing talk, so you can make the retreat as useful to you as possible.
