Attend the WFL's first Human Library event where readers "unjudge someone" through dialogue, respect and curiosity. 

The Human Library Event offers space for dialogue through personal conversation. It is a library of people ready to talk and share what they know and have experienced. We publish people for open and honest conversations, where “people” are books prepared to be published and read like an open book. The books are ready to answer difficult questions relating to issues that are often taboo or challenging to talk about, but necessary for people to gain better understanding. We foremost publish people that represent a group in the community that is exposed to stigma, stereotyping or prejudices based on occupation, ethnicity, religious belief, gender, cultural background, health, social status, lifestyle or disability.
