Change Agent
The annual print journal for social sector communicators.
Change Agent, a first-of-its-kind publication, is The Communication Network’s annual print journal for social sector communicators, mailed directly to our members. It curates the ideas, thoughts, and lessons learned of the most influential voices in the field in a beautifully designed, easy-to-digest way.
Each issue addresses the big questions facing communicators in today’s ever-evolving digital landscape: How do we harness innovations in communications to drive the causes we care about? How do we build upon the existing knowledge in our field, share best practices, and exchange ideas? With Change Agent, we seek to spark new ideas in support of the essential truth that smart communications changes lives.
The journal delivers our members the knowledge, tools, and resources they need to excel in their work, serving as an evergreen guide or reference manual.
