To raise awareness on conserving our natural habitat and cultural heritage we designed a set of principles for Responsible Tourism in Karamoja.
To launch the Responsible Tourism Karamoja principles, we took a day to collectively clean the trails on Mountain Moroto and our municipality in town and discuss the with our team.
