Welcome to the Carnival for Change where we explore the web for interesting items relating to social justice, health, education, and opportunity.

* Nedra Kline Weinreich at Spare Change has a post announcing the upcoming Social Marketing University June 2-4, 2008. Social marketing applies "marketing principles to promoting health and social issues and bringing about positive behavior change."

Thanks so much for helping to get the word out about Social Marketing University and nonprofit.alltop.com! FYI, the discounted early registration rate for SMU ends May 4th, so anyone thinking about attending can save $100 by registering early. :-)
