Karamoja Tourism Academy and partners kickstarted the ‘Boost the Employability of Tourism employees in Elgon and Karamoja’ project. 20 ambitious business leaders participated in the first workshop to develop the framework for the 2 years project.
The project aims at addressing the emerging needs of the rapidly developing tourism sector in northeast Uganda. It focuses on equipping staff with key knowledge and skills to help businesses thrive. A few examples are Digital Marketing, Customer Experience, Sustainability, Tourism Product Development and Packaging, Cocktail making, and Coffee Barista.
We are excited to support the project and together build a community-led and competitive regional tourism sector.
Trekking Uganda’s Mount Kadam with Kenya-based Dutch primatologist Yvonne A. de Jong and American conservationist and ecologist Thomas M. Butynski have had an interest for what lies within the forgotten corners of Uganda’s Karamoja sub-region and bordering Kenya’s Turkana and West-Pokot counties.
Near Moroto we privately had a traditional Karamojong village tour with a local guide. Normally, I don’t like village tours, but this was better than expected and pure.
Bonjour de France! I’m looking back at an inspiring first day building partnerships in tourism and sustainable development for Warrior Nomad Trail initiative. This trip is supported by Ambassade de France en Ouganda.
We are proud to present the Karamoja Tourism Destination Management Plan (DMP) for Uganda’s emerging tourism destination ‘Karamoja’. The DMP is a roadmap for turning Karamoja into a thriving sustainable tourist destination in Uganda.
