Human Library – Explore a Multicultural Collection

 

Harmony Week is the celebration that recognises our diversity

What’s a Harmony Week?

In March each year, Harmony Week is the celebration that recognises our diversity and brings together Australians from all different backgrounds. It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone.

What’s a Human Library?

The Human Library creates a safe space for dialogue where topics are discussed openly between human books and readers. All of the human books are volunteers with personal experience with their topic.

The Human Library is a place where difficult questions are expected, appreciated and answered.

About this event!

A Human Library will be held on 21 March 2024 at ABPL. During this event, patrons will be able to “borrow” 1 out of 4 Human Books with different background and diversity, to have a 30-minute informal conversation. The event is an opportunity for individuals to connect with people they would not normally have the occasion to speak to within their community, to better understand the life experiences of others and to challenge their own assumptions, prejudices and stereotypes.
