Until recently, Karamoja was barely a blip on the map. Yet, the breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural heritage are a hard contrast with visible signs of severe poverty and struggle, as Karamoja stands as one of the world’s most impoverished regions.
The annual Tour of Karamoja Cycling Adventure promotes Karamoja as a tourist destination to create job opportunities as well as raises funds for Girl Education to Tackle the Cycle of Poverty. Cyclists from around the world come together to tackle the stunning landscapes of Karamoja and raise funds to create real change.
