| dc.description.abstract | The opportunities and hindrance towards the development of cultural tourism, the case study of
Koboko district was studied from the month of March to May 2018. The study was conducted to
identify the potential cultural sites, to examine the local people‟s attitude towards preservation of
culture for tourism and to document the hindrance towards the development of cultural tourism
in Koboko district. Data was collected using questionnaires interviews with two categories of
respondents that include the local people and the cultural site management and observation was a
major methodology that was used also. It was found that there are some potential cultural sites
that can be developed for cultural tourism experience in the district. In addition the local people
had a positive response towards developing the Kakwa culture for tourism though there were
some hindrances that couldn't support the tourism activities in the district, some of the
hindrances include; lack of knowledge about tourism, culture alteration, inadequate support
among others. It is concluded that though these cultural sites exist, it needs more involvement of
the stakeholders for better development of the cultural tourism sector in the district. | en_US |
