We are excited to announce a new educational partnership with Dutch Noorderpoort College to strengthen our capacity in Karamoja regional tourism development through skilling.
Therefore we launched The Karamoja Tourism Academy in 2018. Up to now we happily graduated 45 students in basics in hospitality tour guiding. Today we are proudly announcing a long-term partnership with Noorderpoort College from The Netherlands. They are one of the most respected colleges in the country, offering secondary technical and vocational education including tourism and hospitality.
Together we will develop and test tourism and hospitality-related courses to equip the local community with the skills to benefit from the increasing regional tourism sector.
The 25 young women and men are coming from allover the region and have developed 25 new tourist products! They also learned about pricing, marketing, guiding and other practical adventure and community tourism skills.
Hospitality Students of Karamoja Tourism Academy – Meet the first class of graduates of the tourism and hospitality training at the Karamoja Tourism Academy in Northeastern Uganda.
We are glad to have concluded a 2 days training under Uganda Safari Guides Association (USAGA) on mechanisms to prevent, detect and respond to violence against women (VAW) and Gender Based Violence (GBV) in the workplace.
