Notes
[Global Catastrophic Risks Capacity Building] Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $180,000 to the Summer Program on Applied Rationality and Cognition (SPARC) for general support. SPARC is a two-week summer program for talented high school students to develop quantitative and applied reasoning skills. This follows our August 2022 support and falls within our focus area of Global Catastrophic Risks Capacity Building. It represents an “exit grant” that will provide SPARC with operational support.
