Summary/Abstract: The book presents contemporary Polish education and Polish education abroad in two parts. The first presents the current state of this type of education from several perspectives, which allows us to assess and grasp its various possibilities. It is something of a guide for discovering and navigating the current Polish educational space abroad. The second part presents the unprecedented phenomenon of broad cooperation and exchange of experiences that emerged between Polish educational circles from all over the world as a result of the pandemic. The aim of this paper is to show Polish communities from all over the world the contemporary possibilities and dynamics seen in the development of Polish education abroad. Moreover, it seeks to demonstrate how and in what way the events related to the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in the need to unite forces and act creatively in the educational space, despite the many difficulties and often dramatic consequences of that pandemic. The book is addressed to a wide range of educators, educationalists, form teachers, and parents, in fact, to all those with a particularly affinity to the value of multidirectional cooperation and involvement in the education of children and young people. The book raises awareness of the importance of Polish education abroad as a unique space that is perceived and evaluated in a special way, not only by its direct participants but also by the entire Polish expat community. This is because it creates the conditions for Polish civil society abroad to be organised in a creative way.
