Description was written before the event

In the second half of 2026, the Human Library is taking to Copenhagen's neighbourhoods for the first time with a series of pop-up cafés. Local residents are invited to open dialogues about prejudice - including neurodiversity, disability, gender, mental health, and social status.

The events are supported by the local councils of Østerbro, Vesterbro, Kgs. Enghave, Valby, Bispebjerg, Amager Øst, and Amager Vest.
