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.
How one Whistler resident is working with the Tepeth community of Mount Moroto and local social enterprise Kara-Tunga Tours to enhance livelihoods through developing mountain bike tourism on the mountain.
We had the privilege to have connected with the Belgium trainer in Connecting / Non-Violent Communication called Marijke D’Herde (Walk Your Talk). Marijke has a great passion in sharing the knowledge and resources she receives in the North (Western world) in order to share it with the South (Africa).
We are excited to announce a new educational partnership with Dutch Noorderpoort College to strengthen our capacity in Karamoja regional tourism development through skilling.
