Project Phases

1.
At the entrance to the Museum the visitors are asked to answer 5 questions concerning their opinions about various groups of society (racial, ethnic, gender, sexual minorities and mental illnesses) with respect to the current state of human right in Estonia.

2.
After answering the questions, visitors will receive a little device to carry with them while looking around the exhibition.

3.
When one visitor comes close to another in the exhibition venue, the devices signal to both of them the percentage of similar views, such as "you agree 75% with the person next to you".

4.
The devices communicate via the software with the central system that creates a database from which the information about the state of social awareness of the visitor to the exhibition is created, as well as at the level of social awareness of all the visitors since the opening of the exhibition.

The conclusions deriving from the statistics will be also visible in the exhibition space, such as "At the moment you are surrounded by people who are intolerant toward different race" or "At the moment you are surrounded by people who are tolerant toward Russians living in Estonia".

5.
In the exhibition space, answers of prominent experts who currently deals with the problem of human rights in Estonia, will be on display; as well as a small booklet, web site and stickers, in order to open the question of socail (un) awareness and possible improvement of these situation.
