Effective Monday of this week, Ms. Jean Byamugisha took over the
position as Executive Director of the Uganda Hotel Owners Association
(UHOA). She spent the last two years working for the UN’s IOM as a
hospitality sectoral expert. Prior to her joining IOM, the International
Organization for Migration, Jean was already employed by UHOA as
Executive Secretary for 6 years. This experience gives her detailed
insight into the association’s objectives and challenges and allows her
to seamlessly get on with her work without a lengthy process to get
acquainted with the who’s who or building a network from scratch.
On her first day in office, Jean already made it clear that she will
be seeking a close collaboration with the Ministry of Tourism, the
Uganda Tourism Board, the Uganda Wildlife Authority, tourism sector
associations, airlines, banks, insurance companies, suppliers, the
media, and other service providers relevant to the hotel sector in
Uganda.
The current Chairperson, Mrs. Susan Muhwezi, is making it an all-lady team at the helm of UHOA.
