【World Human Library】10 Speakers from Home and Abroad on 5 Major Topics

▶︎ Join a Lineup of Exceptional Speakers for a Dive into International Issues
In this year’s human library event, we invited a documentary director, an island mayor, a refugee worker, and a founder of stateless learning centers. Through their stories, let’s hear the unheard and understand the world authentically through equal dialogue.

▶︎ "Critical Moment" - Returning to the Scene, Making Informed Choices
Many decisions may seem simple, but if you indeed return to the scene, will you make the same decision? In this year’s human library, you will join "Critical Moment" that turns the hall into a large-scale debate. As we enter the personal histories of the human book lecturers with questions, we can better appreciate the struggles and reflections within.
