Uganda - Batwa Tribe - Bwindi Impenetrable Forest

James and other elders of the traditional Batwa pygmies from the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest in Uganda walks one of the well-trodden forest paths. They were indigenous forest nomads before they were evicted from the Bwindi Impenetrable Forest when it was made a World Heritage site to protect the mountain gorillas. The Batwa Development Program now supports them.
