9		Seniors and EA	having an EA event at a seniors residence perhaps and using the accountability, curiosity, wisdom, and even boredom of the elders to generate valuable work and ideas	productive... and fun? #us volunteerting at old folks home, 1on1, ITTS, yes
10		80000 hours career workshop	clare's https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1htwGwHTI3JATxmKAS_fDX6E6elT9tKCn --- Could be a new niche of EATO, coaches, ymca partnerships, and so on. Another tack to take could involve getting people to upgrade their impact and go into EA adjacent fields, not necessarily 80k top 10 materials	yeah, great idea, sure.
11		EA Programmers, hackathon, eg. Webpage re giles		Yes, but expand beyond programmers, #think tanks** yes, just find people to run it/ be the project; Naryan can help run this
12		Make a concrete plan to ask decision makers their positions on EA	core issues, what do politicans and decision makers think of the far future, animal suffering, global poverty? asking them the questions, forming a conversation and a relationship, and hopefully changing opinions or raising cruical considerations on these issues could be valuable	yes, as an event; strong tread carefully... ummm, individual outreach*
13		Ethics & Art night	where we draw and write 1000s of children drowning in ponds into existence	lolz, I like it, warm
14		An event to increase empathy; e.g. more authentic relating	or other techniques?	yeah yeah.
15		The asceticism of altruism	how can we make our way in the world without contributing to problems? (this can be a kind of effective marginal altruism) re an academic paper on ~"the other half of EA: ascetism"
16		Systemic big change organizations versus Local marginal change organizations. Which one should one donate to?	Using the principles of economies of scale and other principles of economics to determine the best use of scarce resources.
17		kialo.com	argument permutations
18		*state of the EATO Union address
19		*youth philanthropy initiative https://www.goypi.org/	This organiztion helps students learn about charity by getting them to visit charities, then give them $5000
20		meta meeting: state of the union part 2, authentically invite criticism after a brief activity and intro then do some star gazing	1. authentic relating activity, 2. sink the ship; make it a norm to suggest ideas and framings that could ruin our collective venture, 3. find the stars; make it a norm to suggest ideas and framings that could help us approach our goals with 10x the impact or change our goals for the better
