Agents of social change can include teachers, media, opinion leaders, innovations/research, and religious institutions. To be an agent of social change means standing against issues in society that need improvement and taking steps to address social problems in a positive way. Some ways to become an agent of social change are to know your influence as a young person, get informed on your issue of choice, engage with peers to build a network, and take small sustainable steps in your community to positively affect change.
