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.
Sensitising regional stakeholders
For the second time, 35 key regional stakeholders attended the annual gathering aimed at fostering sustainable coordination of the regional tourism sector with the Warrior Nomad Trail at the centre.
The participants shared their input and ideas on the further development of the tourist trail and the sector at large. The formalisation of the regional tourism hospitality sector into one association was the most important action point and will be actioned upon during the next meeting in November.

Sensitising national stakeholders
On our journey to develop Uganda’s new tourist product Warrior Nomad Trail, we asked for input and buy-in from national stakeholders during a workshop in Kampala. The participants laid out the tourism opportunities in the Karamoja region, the current challenges faced in tourism development and possible solutions.
Karamoja Uganda’s Land of Warrior Nomads – National Geographic photographer David Pluth made his first trip to Karamoja and Kidepo Valley National Park in early 1997. It started as a simple picture book and got completely out of hand.
In preparation for the the Tour of Karamoja – Easter 2022 event, we partnered with the annual Nabugabo Triathlon held on Sunday 20th February in Uganda. The triathlon is the perfect event to test your fitness and meet likeminded people and participants of previous editions of the Tour of Karamoja.
The Tour of Karamoja is a cycling challenge to transform lives. By joining us, you’ll help provide 20 vulnerable girls from Karamoja with a life-changing education at Matany Girl’s Vocational School.
This announcement has been long awaited! The sixth edition of The Karamoja Cultural Festival Event 2022 is taking place in Abim district and Kara-Tunga is organising a Group Safari to attend the event.
