Pasifika Project is an organization founded by and created for individuals of Oceanic descent within the hospitality and beverage industries.
Pasifika Project is dedicated to the support and promotion of individuals of Oceanic descent within the hospitality and beverage industries, as well as providing a space to cultivate community, fellowship and opportunities for mutual support.
Pasifika Project provides a much-needed platform for Indigenous voices to guide and contribute to conversations within the trade regarding Pacific cultures and appropriation. This is accomplished via speaking engagements, the production of events, the creation of original educational content and the curation and promotion of important resources.
Pasifika Project cultivates grassroots advocacy and seeks to raise awareness of important issues impacting the Pacific Islands and their people: climate change, demilitarization, self-determination, cultural preservation, health and wellness, economic development, to name only a few.
Pasifika Project was honored to be included in the Imbibe 75 Class of 2021, an annual listing of people, places, and organizations working to build a better drinks world.
