Smart Tourist Albania enables the citizens through an Open Source Platform consisting of a Web site and mobile application to report on the problems of tourists related to environment, cleanness, and pollution.

After reporting and communication with the social media, the project marked another success by becoming a movement where dozens of young people were organized on a voluntary basis for cleaning up the beach of “Kepi i Rodonit” in the summer 2012.
