We are excited to kickstart a new round of skilling 75 Karamoja youth in Hospitality and Site Guiding the second half of this year 2022.
The Karamoja Tourism Academy will train 25 youth in site guiding and Matany Girls Vocational School will train 50 girls in hospitality. Together we aim at improving the quality of service in the region and create job opportunities for our youth through skills development.
Stay tuned for updates around the region-wide recruitment through the Karamoja Tourism Academy social media pages starting in July 2022
This project is spearheaded by EyeOpenerWorks Initiative and their UKARIMU Academy open source tourism and hospitality curriculum platform. The project is funded by Enabel in Uganda.
