DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:Effective field theory (EFT) provides a way of parame
 terizing strong-field deviations from General Relativity that might be obs
 ervable in the gravitational waves emitted in a black hole merger. To perf
 orm numerical simulations of black hole mergers in an EFT\, it is necessar
 y that the theory admits a well-posed initial value formulation. In the fi
 rst part of my talk\, I will review recent results on the initial value fo
 rmulation of gravitational EFTs (beyond General Relativity) with second-or
 der equations of motion. In the second part\, I will discuss some ideas to
  deal with EFTs with higher derivative equations.
