We Travel, We Create, We Inspire! : Young Muslim Travellers and Creators for Halal, Sustainable and Inclusive Tourism - 24 October 2026

For several editions now, the HaSIM Forum has examined how halal, sustainable and inclusive tourism is actually delivered on the ground. The practice is no longer the frontier. The harder question is what comes after it. Which standards will define the next decade, how sustainability and halal principles reinforce rather than compete with each other, and how the industry makes room for travellers it has historically overlooked.
