The findings revealed that 80.0% of the respondents have had education on COVID-19, While 20.0% of the respondents stated that they have not received education on COVID-19. Basing on the above findings, it's evident that majority of the respondents have received education on COVID-19. majority of the respondents agreed that COVID-19 disorganized many tourism activities that led to closure of hotels and loss of human capital in the beginning of the pandemic in Kisoro Municipality.

As travels were canceled and tourists reduced in numbers, tour companies were forced to stop some of their employees from working hence creating poverty. |
