About

MPAHT

A collective of determined individuals united in the pursuit of eradicating modern-day slavery and human trafficking, formed MPAHT in 2017. This alliance of conference/event planners, hotel sales experts, and audiovisual professionals initially aimed to raise awareness about human trafficking. Since then, the organization has evolved into a powerful resource center, empowering those who wish to educate themselves, contribute to the cause, or participate in our mission.

We believe together we are making a difference in eradicating modern-day slavery and human trafficking. There are 50 million people in modern slavery (2021 statistic from The Global Slavery Index), if not now, when should we be doing this? Look at the statistics in our resource section.

  1. Focus on the larger issue of human trafficking and slavery while continuing to sustain our efforts against sex trafficking.
  2. Maintain and expand MPAHT’s role as the leading organization providing education and resources to other members of the hospitality and travel industries
    • Continue to educate and network with other organizations
    • Advocate within the industry for organizations to address trafficking issues and to support their efforts
  3. Create an online library of resources
  4. Continue to share world resources through our digital media

A shift in our purpose and mission comes after almost 6 years of raising awareness about human trafficking in the hospitality industry. With the hospitality, tourism, and conference industries more aware and active in the fight against sex trafficking and the broader issue of human trafficking, MPAHT is redirecting its energies.

Meeting Professionals Against Human Trafficking would like to begin by acknowledging the land on which MPAHT was created .  For thousands of years, Indigenous peoples inhabited and cared for this land, as they do now and will do into the future.  We acknowledge the territory of the Anishinabek, Haudenosaunee, Huron-Wendat and the Mississauga’s of the Credit as the traditional stewards of this land.  We also want to acknowledge this land is now home to many diverse First Nations and Metis people.

The territory we are on is within the lands protected by the Dish with One Spoon Wampum Belt, an agreement between the Haudenosaunee and Anishinaabe and allied nations to peaceably share and care for the resources around the Great Lakes.

MPAHT is grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land, and by doing so, give our respect to its first and enduring inhabitants. 

We encourage everyone to learn about the history and cultures of Indigenous Peoples and to hear their ongoing stories.
