DOING GOOD BETTER:
EFFECTIVE ALTRUISM

As a side research interest, I study how people choose between charitable projects and examine how people can be more effective when donating. I feel quite passionate about the Effective Altruism movement. The simple idea behind Effective Altruism movement is that given a certain amount of resources that we allocate to altruism, we should do the most good we can! If you want to know more about Effective Altruism, below are several links and books that you can check out:
