The five-day celebrations and expo climaxed on 27th September with marching through Gulu town. During the expo different government organizations and private companies in the tourism industry in Uganda showcased and advertised their products and services.
The minister of Tourism, Wildlife and Heritage, Hon. Prof. Ephraim Kamuntu was present as well as the third deputy Prime Minister, Hon. Gen. Moses Ali as the main guest-of-honour. Other guests included UWA boss, Dr. Andrew Seguya, Amos Wekesa of Uganda Tourism Association (UTA); District Chairpersons; Residential District Commissioners; area MPs; students from within Gulu; and many others.
WCS shared an exhibit stall with Uganda Tourism Board and Uganda Wildlife Authority to display their materials and speak about the tourism potential in Northern Uganda to students, private companies and the prime minister. WCS/UTA distributed some books/DVDs to the guests.
The discussions emphasized the peace in Gulu and Northern Uganda as a whole, and human wildlife conflict featured prominently as a topic in many speeches and discussions. In general, attendees enjoyed the opportunity to showcase their products, services, and make new industry connections.
