Shared Reading as Social Inclusion 

Back in 2004, The Reader Organization in the UK started a project called "Get Into Reading". The project aims at making literature available to everybody, and has – as a beneficiary side effect – shown to advance the social integration of socially vulnerable groups. Inspired by this, Læseforeningen(the Danish Reading Association, http://www.laeseforeningen.dk/) is implementing this reading practice in Aarhus and other cities in Denmark.
