Summary/Abstract: The authoress presents the strategy of positive change networks understood as designing educational opportunities, the basic purpose of which is stimulating individual and social development. Opportunities should centre around tasks that are necessary, practical, useful – positive – with the use of well-organised animations and cooperation. Such interactions favour: discovering new opportunities for development and creativity, motivation and argumentation towards learning, emotional and social bonds, cultural initiatives, new forms of communication and civic activities. Positive change networks are a challenge to the animators of educational projects, who by joining in the work of building social solidarity serve both, the people who have been marginalised and those who are creative towards initiatives, and open to tradition and European values.
