Due to Uganda’s rich biodiversity, the US government invested $6m (about sh15b) in the development of sustainable tourism in Uganda. A top official disclosed last week. Suudi Bamulesewa, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) team leader in Uganda, explained that the investment would run for five years. This, he pointed out in addition to the over $30m his agency had already invested in conservation projects. "The US government wants to make Uganda's tourism vibrant.” For the next five years it has committed $6m for sustainable tourism development," said Bamulesewa. He was speaking during the closure of the Big Birding Festival at the Kingdom Katomi Resort in Entebbe over the weekend.
Bamulesewa also disclosed that the US government, through tourism, wanted to increase incomes of the rural poor who have not benefited from the resources that are paid by tourists after visiting the national parks and game reserves. He noted that sustainable tourism development had the potential to drive the economy since the country is ranked among the best top 10 in the world in terms of bio-diversity. mountain gorilla tours rwanda
Above all Mr James Rutaro, the director of conservation in the tourism ministry, who represented Minister Maj. Gen Kahinda Otafiire, said the Government would set up a tourism satellite account to capture all data on the sector.” The truth is that we have been missing enough data in the tourism sector. "But soon we shall set up a tourism satellite account to ensure that all data is collected and stored safely," Rutaro pointed out. He said the Government would priorities birding as one of the key elements in tourism to generate more revenue. Rutaro said statistics showed that Uganda received just over 840,000 tourists last year, most of whom were conference attendees and birders.
