About
Impact Focused Education aims to develop an effective educational path for engaging in large-scale high-impact work. We are interested in multiple educational aspects, including building instructional tools to evaluate & prioritize impact, creating training curriculums to help others to meaningfully contribute to important global challenges, and finding how to best motivate students to pursue scale-sensitive impact.
​
Our current focus is on creating the infrastructure that would allow us to scale up our previous educational projects. We are at an early stage of building Impact Focused Education and many changes are expected in the near future. It is highly plausible that there will be opportunities to join us. If you are excited by that please track our Opportunities page, join our mailing list, or write directly to contact@impactfocusededucation.org.
