The paper aims to compare the challenges faced by youths of Radlinska’s generation with the young of today, posing questions about what triggered the increased energy, agency and activism of the young of the interwar period and asks if it could be utilised by current pedagogical ‘forces’ in Poland. The focus is placed on teachers’ education and emerging new systems of tuition, as well as the extraordinary achievements of the social pedagogue of the interwar period – Helena Radlinska. The article is a modified and updated version of an excerpt from the book entitled: 'Invisible environment' (Witkowski, 2014) published in Polish language by Impuls. The idea of revisiting this theme was triggered by the upcoming celebration of the 100 years anniversary of the Independence of Poland (1918)
