Karamoja Tourism Academy and partners kickstarted the ‘Boost the Employability of Tourism employees in Elgon and Karamoja’ project. 20 ambitious business leaders participated in the first workshop to develop the framework for the 2 years project.
The project aims at addressing the emerging needs of the rapidly developing tourism sector in northeast Uganda. It focuses on equipping staff with key knowledge and skills to help businesses thrive. A few examples are Digital Marketing, Customer Experience, Sustainability, Tourism Product Development and Packaging, Cocktail making, and Coffee Barista.
We are excited to support the project and together build a community-led and competitive regional tourism sector.
Don’t miss out on yet another edition of the Pearl of Africa Tourism Expo (POATE Tourism Expo Uganda) that will be taking place at Munyonyo Commonwealth Resort in the capital city of Kampala from 26th – 29th April, 2023.
We’re extremely excited to share the historical news that Karamoja has been declared as save to travel zone by the UK Government’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO).
The recently formed Mount Moroto Tourism Association has completed its first action point being the maintenance of the three main trails. These trails are the main access routes for the community and also for tourists. We are proud to see the first action point to be completed successfully with the necessary accountability of the association.
