Welcome

This lens is intended as a resource for individuals and organizations interested in careers in social change field. The idea is what are possible means for individuals to do good for the world (or a specific cause) while also earning a living. Social change careers range from conflict resolution, international development, human rights, social entreprenuership, and much more. There are many excellent resources out there that are available and I hope this page will help provide a spark for those pursuing their education and those seeking to change careers.
