HUMAN LIBRARY
➢ PEDAGOGY
Human library was also inaugurated by LG on the day of Jail Mahotsav. The suggestion
to open it inside the jail came from the IG prisons inspired by the human library based in
Copenhagen, Denmark. People from outside the prison come to the human library for
discussion with prisoners on one-on-one basis. These people are usually academicians,
professors, counsellors who volunteer to contribute to the cause. The books are also volunteers
who have experienced some form of discrimination or abuse and are ready to tell their stories
to anyone interested.
