KASESE MOUNTAIN TOUR GUIDES ASSOCIATION (KAMATOGA) is an association of mountain guides based in Kasese, with intimate, ancestral knowledge of the Rwenzori Mountains and the communities living there. A key player in the field, the association serves as a bridge between conservation imperatives and the realities of the populations living at the foot of the "Mountains of the Moon" .

Champions of the mountains
KAMATOGA did not wait for outside intervention to act; they recognized early on the vital importance of replanting to save their ecosystem. Today, they lead the way, turning their ancestral wisdom into a powerful force for reforestation and community resilience.
