Karamoja Female Guides Training in Northeastern Uganda – While the global tourism sector is struggling to have the tourism business back to its normal operations, we decided not to stop offering our services. Kara-Tunga’s Karamoja Tourism Academy in collaboration with Nature Uganda held a training for women in Karamoja on how to get involved in tourism services.
The Karamoja region, (Northeastern Uganda) is one of the hidden gems of Uganda. It is very rich in cultural diversity, has over 50 bird species that are not seen in the other parts of the country, has about 10 or more mammals that are not known to be in other regions of Uganda.
60 women from over 6 districts joined the training. Herbert Byaruhanga and Nature Uganda promised to be coming back to check the progress of the trained women. Mr. Byaruhanga is confident that some of the trainees will take birding as specialisation, others will do culture while others will concentrate on adventure.
Trail mapping on Mount Moroto – One of our goals is preservation of cultural heritage through tourism and therefore we are working hand in hand with the elders as gatekeepers and the youth to document, manage and share.
Launch of Tourism trails in The Pearl of Africa – The 3-year project is aimed at improving and diversifying products in adventure and cultural tourism in Uganda’s East and Northeast (Sebei and Karamoja subregions).
The Tour of Karamoja is more than just a bike event. It is an opportunity to experience the rich culture and stunning scenery of least travelled East Africa. Riders will meet different cultures, see untouched landscapes and create opportunities for the most vulnerable girls in this area.
