Kigali, Rwanda, 19th June 2022: Uganda Tourism Board in partnership with the Uganda High Commission in Kigali, will showcase Uganda’s tourism potential during the 26th Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) 2022 in Kigali, Rwanda under the theme “Delivering A Common Future: Connecting, Innovation, and Transforming.’’

Ahead of the official opening ceremony, last evening, the Uganda High Commission- Kigali and UTB hosted a “Uganda Night” at the Chancery in Kacyiru and unveiled the new Pearl of Africa Destination brand to over half a million potential travelers in the city of a thousand hills.

Gen Robert Rusoke, Uganda’s New High Commissioner to Kigali, said that Uganda’s participation in CHOGM 2022 Exhibition in Kigali accompanied by activities like rebranding the Chancery Building, roadshow and road trip will provide a low-cost promotion of Uganda’s new brand ‘Explore Uganda’.

Uganda’s tourism private sector will also participate in networking opportunities during the Street Festival that will showcase Uganda’s unique cuisine, culture and tourism potential in partnership with the Uganda Tourism Association.

Rwanda is the second leading source market for Uganda after Kenya fetching over 22,660 tourists in 2020 following a significant decline in arrivals in 2019.

Both countries share common transboundary ethnicity, history, culture and natural resources.

Therefore, these shared resources and heritage call for collective marketing and tourism product development through collaborative transboundary interventions.

“Uganda’s participation in CHOGM 2022 is an excellent opportunity to promote Uganda’s tourism opportunities under the “Explore Uganda” destination brand and to communicate to CHOGM 20022 delegates about the transboundary tourism products between the two nations,” said Ms. Anne Katusiime, Uganda’s Deputy High Commissioner to Kigali, Rwanda.

“The event and its side activities will create amazing tourism opportunities for Uganda.”
