I think it's "commit change" as in "commit an act of change"

Right.

Comete el cambio.

I think that won't work because in Spanish the verb "cometer" (to commit an act) has a negative connotation by default. It's mostly used in phrases denoting crime, transgression, error, etc. The negative connotation is so common that I can't even give you a positive example off the top of my head.

Cumple el cambio.

That might work. :)


What about "Promueve el cambio".

I do agree "Comete" has connegative implications somehow...
