One of our objectives is to preserve Karimojong Cultural Heritage through tourism and in collaboration with likeminded organisations. Therefore we partnered up with Miss Tourism Karamoja to contribute in enhancing the knowledge on culture of our future tourism ambassadors.
For a real tourism experience, the queens are camping at Kara-Tunga Guesthouse & Café and our guides provide a full day practical Boot Camp about tour guiding and cultural heritage.
The Boot Camp started with a Morning Culture & Nature Walk on Mt Moroto whereby knowledge was shared about the Tepeth-tribe (by oral history known as the original inhabitants of the Karamoja planes). Follow us this week for the rest of the boot camp taking place in a traditional village and ending with a night bush camping in the kraal.
Kara-Tunga launches the Karamoja Virtual Tours documentary series to help site guides and host communities to bridge the affects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
We’re thrilled to host Dutch Fashion designer Jan Boelo in Karamoja (northeast Uganda) for a journey of inspiration aimed at learning more about Karimojong culture and fashion.
Kara-Tunga launches Karamoja Workshop Tours – The Karamoja Workshops are tours aimed at connecting travellers with craftsmen, two-way sharing of knowledge, improving communities livelihoods and preserving cultural heritage. Through the workshops, craftsmen are able to double or triple their income and learn more about a potential group of buyers and fellow artists.
Watch the award winning documentary “Ateker” about reuniting people across borders in South Sudan, Karamoja Uganda, Turkana Kenya and Ethiopia. The documentary makers aim at fostering peace, preserving our cultural heritage and promoting cross-border tourism.
