Positive reinforcement could involve praising the person for any efforts they make towards making education free, such as signing a petition or reaching out to representatives to discuss the issue. You can also encourage them to read articles and watch documentaries about how education reform is happening around the world and emphasize how those successes are impacting people's lives for the better. Additionally, connecting the individual to resources or organizations that share their goal of making education free can help increase their motivation.

Positive reinforcement involves offering rewards in exchange for desired behaviors, so it would be difficult to apply this to changing someone's beliefs. However, presenting them with persuasive arguments, facts or examples that support their position while encouraging them to consider different points of view may be helpful in getting them to rethink their stance.
