“We need change” (in general. All things need to change): “The oceans and rivers are terribly polluted but no one seems to care. We need change in the world now. Do you want change? Then, we need braver politicians and citizens. We need change across the board. To achieve significant change we will need to make significant sacrifices.”
“We need a change” (something specific. Maybe you are going to specify the kind of change that is needed): “The oceans are terribly polluted. We need a change in the way we do things. We need a change in how we handle plastic and waste. We need a change in our focus and mindset. We need a change in leadership.”
Here’s a different scenario:
“He needed a change. He was tired of working in an office from 9 to 5. He had decided to leave town as soon as he could.” (The man is thinking of a very specific type of change.)
Notice that when you specify what type of change it is, you need to use: a change + in....
“Teachers are considering a change in strategies for at-risk students.”

@ntt1 yes. But you would most like say something likely this:
“We changes in the system”
“We need changes made to the way things work.”
“They wanted changes to happen fast.” (And it is still general and vague. We know we need changes and we know we need them for something, but we don’t know what the specific changes are.)
