UGANDA TOURISM BODIES COMBINE FOR 2014 – 2019 STRATEGIC PLAN– UGANDA SAFARI NEWS


uganda toursThe Uganda’s tourism fraternity is in a harmonious contact following the liaising of Uganda Tourism board and the Uganda Tourism Association to turn Uganda into the Mecca of Africa i.e. by increasing safaris to Uganda. This move was exposed during the cocktail celebration to commemorate the launch of the 2014 – 2019 Strategic Plan at Kampala Serena Hotel.

Uganda is a great safari destination with various tourist attractions and activities ranging from gorilla trekking, Chimpanzee trekking, wildlife safaris and cultural safaris which always prompt travellers to undertake safaris in Uganda.
The five year strategic plan is a great road map that will structure the way for engagement and coordination in the tourism sector since the Private sector led by the Uganda Tourism Association has been equally engaged into the formulation of the strategic plan which will ultimately increase efficiency and the satisfaction of the Uganda safari undertakers.
The strategic plan would definitely form a basis for decision making on various tourism priorities and the attempts that are needed for tourism in Uganda to accelerate so as to realize social inclusion, economic growth and preservation of environment.
This comes at a time when tourism has been recorded as the highest foreign exchange earner for Uganda thus noting its great significance towards economic development, realization of vision 2014 and attainment of Millennium Development Goals. Interestingly, the five year strategic plan acknowledges that the need for private sector efforts is very significant which implements it and directly handle the Uganda safari undertakers.
