Join us for a powerful and eye-opening session dedicated to exploring the critical role the meeting and event planning industry can play in the fight against human trafficking. Human trafficking thrives in silence—and every industry, including meetings and events, plays a critical role in either enabling or ending it. In this powerful and practical session, you’ll learn how to identify red flags, implement preventative protocols, and become an active advocate for change. From policy to practice, we’ll explore how meeting professionals, venues, suppliers, and stakeholders can work together to eliminate risk, stay vigilant, and speak out. Because with eyes open and voices loud, trafficking has no place in our spaces.
