Rwenzori Sustainable Trade Centre

The Rwenzori Mountains, sometimes called the Mountains of the Moon, run along the border between Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). With peaks of 5,000m or more these mountains support glaciers, are snow capped, and their lower slopes are home to the remaining gorillas.  Waters from the Rwenzoris are a source for the River Nile. The region is blessed with numerous parks and reserves with , spectacular wildlife.
