The Human Library – hosted by Nova

Nova are hosting another ‘Human Library’, part of an international movement that promotes social contact to challenge prejudice, exclusion and discrimination.

Just like in a real library, a visitor to the Human Library can choose a Book from a range of titles. The difference is that Books are people, and reading is a conversation. The Human Library provides a safe environment for people to engage in dialogue that has the potential to challenge prejudice, stigma and discrimination. It raises awareness of the multiple circumstances that can lead to bullying, abuse and hate crime and takes positive action to address it.

They’re on the look out for a few more talking, living, stereotype smashing human books, people who really defy the stereotypes they’ve been labelled with. If you or anyone you know would be interested in joining the movement, please get in touch! Training provided and expenses covered.
