We are proud to share the launch of the first community tourism association of Mount Moroto Forest Reserve located in Lia Parish sub county with our first donation of 3,890,000 Ush.
The Kara-Tunga team has worked with the indigenous community for the last 4 months to formalise them into a national recognised organisation for community lead development.
Kara-Tunga does not support incidental donations, but we aim for sustainable partnership through tourism as it’s a proven sustainable business model. Especially in the Karamoja region where tourism will undoubtedly increase.
Kara-Tunga has committed to contribute $5 per visitor to the association in order to achieve their goals in education, health, hygiene, agriculture and livestock.
The association will also maintain the trails used for tourism activities and use funds to develop related businesses in arts and crafts making, homestays and cultural dances.
A partnership in linking Karimojong crafts producers to tourism markets in Uganda with the ambition to create job opportunities and preservation of culture of indigenous communities.
Mount Moroto Tourism Association brings 76 Children to School -We are super proud of the Mount Moroto Community Association that have enrolled 76 children in Lia Primary School.
Update: Karamoja takes the crown for Miss Tourism Uganda! (Read the article) One of our objectives is to preserve Karimojong Cultural Heritage through tourism and in collaboration with likeminded organisations. Therefore we partnered up with Miss Tourism Karamoja to contribute in enhancing the knowledge on culture of our future tourism ambassadors.
