Human Library series #11 Disability
Location Azure Beach Public Library 44 Lighting Way, Azure Beach NSW 2100
Free Event
Once again Azure Beach library visitors will be able to borrow a real person(Human Book) with a unique story to share. Human Books are volunteers from stigmatized groups in the community who are willing to share their stories with others. In December, celebrating International Day of People with Disability, Azure Beach library will host its final Human Library event on the theme of Disability.
 |
| Around 1 in 6 (18%) people in Australia – or about 4.4 million – have disability. |
The Human Library® is an internationally recognised event that facilitates conversations between people who would not normally have the occasion to speak to each other. It aims to break down stereotypes and prejudices by having "human books" tell their stories and "readers" have conversations with them. If you want to learn more about the Human Library, please visit https://humanlibrary.org/.
