United Against Sexual Exploitation 2027

EmpowerMen > United Against Sexual Exploitation 2027

Save the Date!

EmpowerMen’s next big conference has a date! The United Against Sexual Exploitation Conference 2027 will once again invite guests and speakers from across Canada (and beyond!) to the historic Fort Garry Hotel on March 17 & 18, 2027. The theme of this year’s event are the “3 Ps,” Prevention, Protection, and Prosecution, with EmpowerMen’s mission to engage men and boys to address sexual exploitation also being an overarching focus.

We have updated the title of the event, previously simply known as our Law Enforcement Conference, to reflect the wide range of voices and sectors present, including Indigenous leaders, law enforcement and justice representatives, survivors, service providers, advocates, educators, researchers, and more. The mission of the conference remains the same — bringing together passionate people to share actionable steps and solutions that will have a tangible impact. We continue to focus on the male demand that drives exploitation and services that focus on prevention and increase community awareness and safety.
