When Thadeus Ayebale realized these problems and the knowledge he had acquired, he decided to start up a Community-Based Tourism Organization (CBTO) to educate the natives about the importance of tourism through protecting wildlife and culture.
The idea of starting up a community Association was spearheaded by the natural attractions that are found in Isunga community such as the cold springs, crater lakes, and forests for example Kibale forest, unique bird species such as great blue turacos, cardinal wood-pecker, red chested cuckoo, Deidrick cuckoo among others.
Therefore, the natives in the community are able to provide Tooro cultural activities such as cuisine, music, dance and drama as they sell local hand crafts to the tourists to earn a living. On top of these, the community organization offers services such as, home stays, camping, nature walks, canoeing, and biking and Boda-Boda adventure among others.
Isunga is a village located south of Fort Portal town Kasenda sub-county, Kabarole District in Uganda. The word Isunga comes from the word “Kusuunga” which means watching and this resulted from the natural blessing (natural features) that many have always moved to observe as unique features. The offices of Isunga cultural community are located next to Kibale Conservation Area, Isunga park headquarters.
