Emma – human ‘book’ to Management Committee

Emma is a human ‘book’ and has recently been nominated for our 2023 Management Committee.

Emma joined the Hobart Human Library as a ‘book’ in early 2021, hoping that sharing her story of invisible illness would help people think about diversity and inclusion more expansively.

Emma has the story telling bug and has also been a lived experience speaker with Beyond Blue since 2014.

Emma has loved every minute of her involvement with A Fairer World to date, especially getting to know the stories of, and learning from, her fellow human ‘books’.


In her professional life, Emma is a policy analyst in the Tasmanian Government, working across a range of policy areas, notably climate change and energy.

Emma is excited to become a Management Committee member where she will draw on her policy and government sector expertise. Into the future, she hopes to contribute to extending A Fairer World’s impact in schools, workplaces and the wider community, and assisting with sustainability.
