Nominate & Vote For Your Favorite Feminist Changemaker

Published October 01, 2009 @ 12:22PM PT

So Change.org has launched a new fun initiative called the ChangeMaker Network.

This network will include a select group of prominent activists, elected officials, authors, bloggers, actors, musicians and thought leaders who have demonstrated the ability to create change on the issues that matter to them most.

Each Changemaker will be invited to write on an issue they're passionate about and have their content featured prominently on Change.org. Content produced by Changemakers will help frame the complexities of major issues, drive the public discourse toward positive and lasting solutions, and mobilize millions of people to take action.

Best of all - YOU can decide who gets to write for the Women's Rights Blog and every other blog on the site by voting for your favorite nominees.

Your vote, along with votes of the Change.org community, will be the primary factor that Change.org's team of bloggers and full-time staff will use to determine which nominated individuals should be approached about being part of the Changemakers Network. Other factors that will be considered will include diversity of background, breadth of issues covered, and capacity to drive conversation and action.

So, GO - get to it! Bring some new faces and names to Change.org. Vote on or nominate your favorite ChangeMaker today.
