1,000 Year 11 and 12 students at Hobart College have recently taken a deep dive into what diversity and inclusion truly means within their school community. With the principal highlighting inclusion as a key priority for the college, it was an honour to be part of this important journey.
A Fairer World’s Hobart Human Library was invited to speak at assembly, with Human ‘books’ John and Owen courageously sharing their lived experiences—John spoke about the discrimination he faced after suddenly becoming deaf, and Owen shared his story about the prejudice he experiences being queer. Both stories were supported on stage by our facilitator, Gabe.
Thank you, Hobart College, for opening your hearts and minds to these powerful conversations. 💬📚
