HaSIM Forum

Where Tourism Meets Values

HaSIM Forum (Halal, Sustainability, and Inclusive Tourism Forum) is a groundbreaking global dialogue platform that brings together diverse voices to reimagine the future of tourism through the lens of ethical, sustainable, and inclusive practices.

What We Do

We host bi-monthly dialogue series featuring thought leaders, academics, practitioners, and communities from around the world. Our discussions explore how tourism can be:

  • Halal-conscious - Respecting faith-based needs and ethical considerations

  • Sustainable - Protecting our planet for future generations

  • Inclusive - Empowering marginalized communities, including Muslim women and indigenous peoples

Our Unique Approach

Unlike traditional tourism forums, HASIM:

  • Centers spirituality, ethics, and social justice as foundations for tourism development

  • Promotes critical thinking across disciplines and cultures

  • Transforms discussions into actionable recommendations for the industry

  • Bridges gaps between academia, industry, communities, and policymakers

Join Our Global Conversations

Our upcoming dialogue series features experts from:

  • 🌍 Six continents sharing best practices in halal tourism

  • 📱 Media leaders discussing how to shape positive tourism narratives

  • 🌟 Youth voices bringing fresh perspectives on sustainable travel

  • 🎓 Academic pioneers decolonizing tourism knowledge

  • 💼 Industry innovators showcasing practical solutions

Get Involved

Whether you're a student, educator, tourism professional, policymaker, or simply passionate about ethical tourism, there's a place for you at HaSIM Forum.
