What started in Denmark as a small event has today reached cities across the globe. The Human Library® is an international not-for-profit organization that was founded by Ronni Abergel in 2000. To put it simply, it's a library of people. A story-telling platform, if you will. Every human book comes with a story about a prejudice or stereotype that they have faced. Readers borrow these books and listen to the stories, thereby starting a dialogue.
