Katie Fallon has been appointed Vice Chair of International Tourism Partnership at Sustainable Hospitality Alliance
Katie Fallon, EVP and Global Head of Corporate Affairs, Hilton, has been appointed the Vice Chair of the Board for the International Tourism Partnership (ITP). Fallon has been a member of the ITP Board since 2017 and assumed the Vice Chair role on 2 April 2019. Fallon was the Director of Legislative Affairs and Senior Advisor to President Obama, before being appointed Executive Vice President and Global Head of Corporate Affairs for Hilton in November 2016.
Hilton, a leading global hospitality company, is one of the founding members of the International Tourism Partnership - a non-profit organisation which brings together the world's leading hotel companies to drive action on issues affecting society and the planet. ITP has four main goals for the hotel sector, linked to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The ITP Goals set a vision for how hotel companies can work together to make a positive impact on carbon, water, youth employment and human rights.
Fallon has been an active member of the ITP Board over the past two years. She has been particularly involved with ITP's work on human rights, the launch of ITP's Principles on Forced Labour, and the development of a training module for the hotel industry to raise awareness and tackle human rights risks of modern slavery in labour supply chains, which Hilton donated to ITP last month.
