4MOST is an upcoming spectroscopic survey that throughout 5 years will obtain spectra of tens of millions of sources in the southern hemisphere. 4MOST is divided among many public surveys, including the Chilean AGN and Galaxy Evolution Survey (ChANGES). This public survey will obtain spectra of millions of active galactic nuclei, or AGN, selected in a number of different ways. In this project, we are leading the selection of AGN candidates based on their spectral energy distributions that will form about 50% of the final sample of ChANGES.
