Tour of Karamoja Riders Fundraise 15 Scholarships – The annual bicycle event aims at offering vulnerable girls in Karamoja the opportunity of life-changing education at Matany Girl’s Vocational School (MAGVS). The girls come from various host communities along the Warrior Nomad Bike trail.
Current rapid development is challenged due to “decades of marginalisation” that has caused untrust in government and strong belief in traditional customs and traditions. Early forced marriages, migration and child labour are depriving girls of a future. MAGVS gives willing girls a chance of a better future.
