Intro Fellowship Session 4: Longtermism and Existential Risks

  • THEA Hub Prinsessegracht 6b 2514 AN Den Haag (map)

Humanity appears to face existential risks: a chance that we'll destroy our long-term potential. We’ll examine why existential risks might be a moral priority, and explore why they are so neglected by society. We’ll also look into one of the major risks that we might face: a human-made pandemic, worse than COVID-19.

Alongside this, we'll introduce you to the concepts of neglectedness, marginal thinking, and explore whether you could lose all of your impact by missing one crucial consideration.

Speaker: Susi Snyder, Program Coordinator ICAN
