The A Fairer World team recently wrapped up the school term at Taroona Primary School with one of our Hobart Human Library workshops. One of the students shared, “After hearing these stories, I feel more ‘normal’.”
It was a really touching moment for us. It reminded us why we do this work, because creating safe spaces where students can connect with real stories and see themselves reflected in others is powerful. In that simple sentence, we heard the impact of empathy, connection, and understanding.
Thank you and great work to our amazing human ‘books’ and volunteers your contributions are making a real difference in young lives.
Thank you to the Department for Education, Children and Young People for providing a subsidy which enables us to visit schools across the state.

At A Fairer World, we’re dedicated to building diversity, inclusion, and social justice. Through our various programs, such as the Hobart Human Library and community outreach initiatives, we strive to dismantle barriers and cultivate empathy and understanding among individuals from all walks of life. The stories of resilience and triumph shared within our Hobart Human Library, each story serves as a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit.
To read more inspiring stories host a Hobart Human Library forum.
But our mission doesn’t stop there. We believe in taking action to create tangible change in our communities. That’s why we’re excited to announce the launch of our Hobart Human Library forum initiative, where schools and workplaces can host their own Human Library events.
