SUMMARY:The Human Library
DESCRIPTION:At the Human Library\, you can borrow books\, just like at any other library. However\, the difference is that the “books” are living people with personal stories and experiences from their own life. Every book is drawn from a group in society who are negatively marginalized or targeted with (or vulnerable to) prejudice and discrimination because of their identity\, lifestyle\, occupation\, social status\, religious belief\, sexuality\, ethnic origin or something similar. Everyone has prejudices\, but not everyone has the opportunity to find out whether what we believe about other people is true within a safe space. That is the core of what the Human Library offers. Meet your prejudice. Unjudge someone. \nJoin us for one or more 30 minute conversation. \n\nAre you interested in Joining the Human Library®?  \nDo you have valuable experiences that Readers could benefit from learning about? Are you motivated to help challenge stigma and stereotypes through dialogue and personal conversations? Then maybe you can become an Open Book with the Human Library®. Do you want to support other Books by being a Librarian at future events? Please Consider becoming part of the Human Library team\, by filling out this form.
