What we are and what we would like to be:

• Contribute to the EA body of knowledge through both theory and practice
• Foster a sense of community among EA practitioners and enthusiasts
• Focus on EA writ large including the private sector (though the region is heavily government-oriented)
• Act as a clearinghouse for theory and practice related questions and provide a peer-peer mentorship that result in a sum greater than the parts
• Provide forums for discussion and demonstration of EA best practices and platforms for debates and discussions that are goal-oriented
