The CUHK Centre for Global Health and Gender Studies Programme are extremely proud to present CUHK’s first ever open Human Library event!
A human library is a novel and innovative initiative which establishes a safe space for raw and honest conversations to occur between different individuals. It is a library of individuals who each represent a group in the community that are somehow exposed to stigma, prejudice and/or discrimination. These dialogues and meetings will challenge societal prejudices where and for whatever reasons they occur, and help people to form a better understanding of those with whom they share their communities. In support of SDG #5 (Gender Equality), the CUHK Human Library will feature individuals who challenge societal norms regarding gender and sexuality.
Talk to people who challenge stereotypes. Learn from their stories. Foster respect for differences.
Featuring: a transgender activist, an intersex therapist, a female body builder, a house husband and a female pastor.
Drop in and out of the CUHK Main Library all day on 4th October to meet these amazing individuals!
This event is run with generous support from the Global Policy Impact and Social Mission Subgroup (GPISM).
