Sensitising Karamoja Communities on Tourism – Kara-Tunga aims at making Karamoja a must visit destination with people at its centre. It therefore embarked on a journey through the region to sensitise 17 community tourism groups (600 members) along Karamoja’s Warrior Nomad Trail.
The communities were sensitised about the looming tourism opportunity and the need to embrace training programs, preserve our cultural heritage and biodiversity, foster peaceful coexistence, as well as diversify their tourism products to increase their incomes.

We are glad to have concluded a 2 days training under Uganda Safari Guides Association (USAGA) on mechanisms to prevent, detect and respond to violence against women (VAW) and Gender Based Violence (GBV) in the workplace.
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.
The lately trendy Uganda birding destination is our unexplored Karamoja region. Our Kara-Tunga gudie Brian took Mr. Crammy Wanyama of Avian Safaris and his clients for a day of birding around Mount Moroto Central Forest Reserve along the Kenyan border.
