DEADLINE: Jan 27, 2012
Countries/Region: UGANDA
The proposed Eco-Tourism program directly links to USAID/Uganda’s 2011-2015 Country Development Cooperation Strategy at Intermediate Result 1.3 – Natural Resource base degradation mitigated to protect future value. Through this program, numerous measures through the development and expansion of eco-tourism will be taken to mitigate and protect key existing or potential ecotourism sites in Uganda.
The principal objective of this program is to use ecotourism as a tool to reduce threats to biodiversity and conserve selected critical ecosystems across Uganda’s diverse landscapes so as to support sustained economic growth. The Country Development Cooperation Strategy (CDCS) mentions that natural resource management activities will be tailored geographically and references the areas prioritized by the GOU for ecotourism development.
