Applied Ethics - Academic Course

An academic course at Tel Aviv University

The course presents practical tools for examining ethical issues in everyday decision-making, drawing on insights from ethics, economics, behavioural science, exact sciences and more. It explores questions such as: to what extent should global catastrophes worry us, and what can and should be done about them? Should empirical evidence influence our ethical decisions, and how? What could be done about global poverty and health? Do we have a moral obligation towards others, and if so, to whom, and does it include animals? How can moral commitment be incorporated into career decisions? And more.

A series of lectures on altruism, philanthropy, global poverty & healthcare, animal welfare, existential risks to humanity, and the GiveWell & Chairty Entrepreneurship organizations.

Academic Debate Championship

An academic competition on impact oriented ideas

The inaugural impact oriented debate championship - a three-day debate championship with impact-themed topics. The championship had 150+ participants, from roughly 25 countries, that span 6 continents (including participants from top universities such as Oxford and Cambridge). Over 500 speeches were delivered in the framework of the competition. 

The participants of the tournament have made donations to distinguished charities (with most of the funds going to the Against Malaria Foundation). The funds were doubled via donation matching. 

In the framework of the championship a research was conducted to examine if debating changes the stance of debaters towards certain values. Organizing the event was an effort of a great many. We name them and thank them in the link below. â€‹
