The world is moving so fast and rural communities in developing areas like my Karamoja can be overwhelmed and overrun by tourist. The people of Karamoja have taken charge of their Tourism Future…
Since tourism in Karamoja is still in its infancy, it is incredibly important to raise awareness, set expectations and develop guidelines now. Watch the video where community tourism group representatives from the entire Warrior Nomad Trail, develop “The Tourism Future They Really Want”.
As first in Uganda, the people of Karamoja have developed a Travel Manifesto stating their dreams and a Tourist Pledge for visitors to sign.
Trekking Uganda’s Mount Kadam with Kenya-based Dutch primatologist Yvonne A. de Jong and American conservationist and ecologist Thomas M. Butynski have had an interest for what lies within the forgotten corners of Uganda’s Karamoja sub-region and bordering Kenya’s Turkana and West-Pokot counties.
Ever since I have travelled to Uganda I’ve visited many places already. But Karamoja is different, in a good way, from all the places I’ve been to. A region rich of beautiful nature, beautiful people and a lot of cattle and goats.
