September 2017. Salvatrice Musabyeyezu, International Gorilla Conservation Program (IGCP) Tourism Specialist talking with the Batwa about their tourism program. The Batwa Pygmies were evicted from their home lands in the forest in the early 1990s when the Mghinga Gorilla National Park was established, leaving them landless and poor in a society that saw them as a lower class. Today some of them try to make ends meet by hosting trail walks; cultural tours that include examples of where and how they use to live in the forest as well as singing, dancing, and handicrafts for sale.
