UWA Earned Shs16.4 Billion From Lodges and Campsites While Fewer Tourists Came Concession income exceeded its target by more than three times, but an 8.3% drop in visits showed how exposed Uganda's wildlife economy is to a health scare. Visitors to Uganda's parks fell by 78,032 last financial year. Even so, the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) collected Shs16.4 billion from private operators running lodges, campsites and restaurants on protected land. The target was Shs5 billion, so the Authority beat it by 3.3 times. The UWA ED James Musinguzi presented the figures at the 2026 Annual Stakeholder Breakfast Meeting at Skyz Hotel in Naguru. He framed the year as one of progress on several fronts. "The financial Year 2025/26 marked important progress in Uganda Wildlife Authority's delivery of its wildlife conservation mandate, with notable achievements in ecosystem restoration, wildlife protection, species reintroduction, community conservation and tourism development," Musinguzi said. Investors had a good year, but the Park gates had a hard one. Read the Full story: kaributravel.co.ug/uwa-earne…

Thinking about where to invest in African hospitality? @JulzKagwa on why Uganda should be on your list, 100% profit repatriation, tax exemption on hospitality equipment, tourism tax holidays, and road funds built around tourism. #FHSAfrica2027 #InvestInUganda

The Big Five? Uganda has the Big Seven. Our CEO @JulzKagwa puts it plainly, Uganda sits at the heart of Africa, where ecosystems, cultures, and biodiversities meet in a way that exists nowhere else on the continent. Come now. Get in on the ground floor. After 2027 there is no looking back. Watch the video @Destination256 #ExploreUganda

In Africa, people still make time for people. Rolf MΓΌller reflects on the human connection that keeps standing out to him, the bonding, the warmth, and the simple moments that make an experience feel personal. Maybe that's one of Africa's greatest tourism assets. #ThisIsAfrica
