Human Library - Take out a prejudice

Human Library Samba in Brazil

Yesterday the Human Library was introduced in Brazil, the first country in South America to launch the concept. The four day event at PUC University is located in the middle of the year´s largest "fair" with more than 100.000 students visiting the PUC RIO event.

Despite first being let down by a  t-shirt sponsor, the local organisers carried out a succesfull launch with many positive reactions and comments from readers and books. Below a compilation pictures from yesterday´s sessions. The Human Library in Rio continues today with more reading and already the organizers have decided that this is not their last Human Library.

For more information on the first Human Library in Brazil - See the detailed description of the events in our activities section.
