EA - Mindmap with overview of EA organisations via tinyurl.com/eamindmap (and many other lists of orgs) by mariekedev

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Mindmap with overview of EA organisations via tinyurl.com/eamindmap (and many other lists of orgs), published by mariekedev on June 15, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum.TLDR: I've assembled a mindmap of all EA (-related) entities I could find. You can access it at tinyurl.com/eamindmap. If I missed or misrepresented anything: leave a note (in the mindmap) and I'll add it or correct it. I've also added other existing lists of orgs to this post.ContextStarting my position at EA Netherlands as a co-director, I was advised by EA Pathfinder (now Successif) to make an overview of the EA space. In this way it would be easier to onboard, support community members and follow conversations.I made this mindmap of EA(-related) entities and this quickly got out of hand. I asked around, whether such overviews already exists. There were a few:Overview of EA organizationsEA Org list (EA Opportunity Board) - From this list, I use this overview most often as it seems to be very comprehensive and includes meta data such as 'involvement with EA'.EA Org wiki (Jamie Gittins) - Introduced via a Forum post. I'd share this link if someone is new, or looking for an EA aligned career, as it has clear descriptions for every orgEA/Rationalist-Related Orgs (Arden P. B. W.) - Also contains fellowships, courses and YouTube channelsDatabase of orgs relevant to longtermist/x-risk work (Michael Aird) - Very comprehensive listOverview of effective giving organisations ->Overview of the public effective giving ecosystem (supply and demand) [shared] (Sjir Hoeijmakers) - Amazing to see all these giving orgs, I had no ideaLet's advertise EA infrastructure projects, Feb 2023 - A list of EA-related projects and orgs that offer free and useful servicesEASE: directory of independent agencies and freelancers offering expertise to EA-aligned organizationsAISafety.world is a map of the AIS ecosystem - Very hard to compete with this :)Other somewhat related lists:OpenBook: New EA Grants DatabaseList of EA Slack workspaces (Alex Berezhnoi)List of EA-aligned research training programs (Michael Aird)Effective Altruism DataHistorical EA funding dataLet me know if I missed an important list of orgs here.Somehow I still ended up sharing my mindmap with others, as it gives a clear visual overview of the orgs per main category or cause area. I know it is not perfect, but it is easy to maintain and people seem to like it. I was asked multiple times to add it to the forum, so here it is.DisclaimerOrganisation inclusion doesn't imply my endorsement.The branches (the categories or cause areas) are a bit arbitrary, as some organisations serve multiple categories or cause areas. For me the aim was to get an overview, not a perfect mindmap.It's incomplete. I'm still adding orgs weekly. Feel free to add notes (in the mindmap) where this overview can be corrected or orgs can be added or deleted.I use the words orgs, organisations and entities in this post. That is because 'orgs' is more accessible and clear as a word, but the entities aren't all official organisations.I changed the title of the mindmap from EA(-aligned) to EA(-related), due to this comment. I'm still a bit uncomfortable with it, because there are many more EA-related orgs which won't fit all into this mindmap (see 80k jobboard), but it seems more right (for example: I added the AI labs..). I try to add only the orgs that self-identify as EA-aligned or the ones that many EAs refer to.How to use thisHowever you like :) the left side contains more meta entities and the right side contains more object-level (cause area related) orgs.I heard people use it in order to quickly get an overview of existing entities in one category (like EA career support or biorisk).Sometimes I use it in an intro presentation to make people more aware of ...
