What is Human Library ? 

The Human Library engages people in a process of gaining greater understanding about human diversity and increasing respect for difference. In this event, you will be having face to-face dialogue with our “Human Living Books” from different cultures and backgrounds share their stories and thought.

This also encourage and brings people together, find room for conversation which they do not usually encounter or have the opportunity to discuss their points of view.
