The Busoga Kingdom, a cultural gem in eastern Uganda, is making waves in the global tourism scene following a high-profile workshop hosted by the United Nations Global Pulse at Jinja Nile Resort from May 7-9, 2025. The event, themed “The Future of Tourism 2040,” saw Busoga’s Tourism Official, Miss Walusimbi Doris, proudly representing the Busoga Ministry of Tourism and Heritage.
The workshop focused on digitalizing the tourism sector by 2040, aiming for sustainable growth and enhanced visitor experiences, a vision that perfectly aligns with Busoga’s rich offerings.
Nestled at the northern shores of Lake Victoria, Busoga Kingdom is home to the Source of the Nile, the world’s longest river, and iconic sites like Itanda Falls, Bujagali Falls, and the Kyabazinga’s Palace. The region’s cultural heritage, led by the revered Kyabazinga William Gabula Nadiope IV, is a draw for culture lovers, while adventure seekers flock to Jinja, East Africa’s capital of adventure, for white-water rafting and more.
Recent initiatives, like the annual Kagulu Rock-Climbing Challenge, blend cultural heritage with modern digital tourism strategies, creating sustainable employment opportunities for the community. Busoga’s tourism potential is undeniable, yet challenges like poverty and youth unemployment persist, as noted in a 2025 report by Visit Rwanda Gorilla.
However, events like the United Nations workshop signal a bright future, positioning Busoga as a must-visit destination for global travelers seeking authentic cultural and natural experiences.
