Effektiv Altruism Sverige (EA Sweden)
Effective Altruism Sweden (Effektiv Altruism Sverige) is a nonprofit association that has worked since 2016 to help people in Sweden use their time, skills, and money to do the most good. The organization operates as an umbrella body for the Swedish EA community, providing free career coaching, hosting intro fellowships and courses, incubating high-impact projects, and running a major annual conference. EA Sweden has supported over 400 individuals to make their careers more impactful and has hosted lectures and workshops at nearly all major Swedish universities. Two notable initiatives — the effective giving platform geeffektivt.se and Impact Academy — were incubated within EA Sweden before becoming independent organizations.

Theory of Change
EA Sweden aims to increase the number and quality of people in Sweden taking highly effective actions on global problems, including AI safety and existential risk. The causal chain runs from community-building activities — fellowships, career coaching, conferences, and university outreach — to participants gaining EA knowledge and skills, to those participants choosing high-impact careers in AI safety research, policy, or related fields, donating more effectively, or launching impactful projects. By serving as Sweden's hub for effective altruism, EA Sweden concentrates and multiplies the impact of talented, motivated people who might otherwise have no exposure to these ideas. The incubation of geeffektivt.se and Impact Academy demonstrates a second pathway: EA Sweden acts as a launchpad for new high-leverage initiatives that grow into independent organizations with larger footprints.
