Wisata Desa e-ICBT

e-ICBT (Electronic Integrated Community Based Tourism) is a digital platform that connects tourists with local tourism potential that is rich in culture and natural beauty. Through e-ICBT, local communities are empowered to share their stories, experiences and rich traditions, creating authentic and memorable experiences. With a technology-friendly approach, e-ICBT builds a bridge between the virtual and real worlds, bringing tourists closer to its hidden charms.

The e-ICBT System is an information technology-based management system designed to optimize tourism management in tourist villages by involving local communities, especially micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs), as the main actors. This system is present as a solution to increase the independence of tourist villages which so far still depend on outside travel agents, as well as to overcome the lack of active community participation in managing the existing tourism sector. e-ICBT utilizes digital technology to integrate various aspects of community-based tourism, such as management of MSME products and services, travel planning, and direct interaction between tourists and local business actors. The main goal is to provide a system that supports more efficient, transparent and coordinated management, so that tourist villages can increase economic potential and preserve local culture in a sustainable manner.

This application includes various important information about tourist facilities, cultural events, and local tenants involved, so that tourists can experience a more authentic and immersive experience.

With the e-ICBT system, management of tourist destinations in tourist villages becomes more efficient and organized. Collaboration between MSMEs, tourist village managers and tourists is becoming easier to create, enabling the achievement of the main goals of this system, namely increasing the economic independence of village communities and preserving local culture. Apart from that, this system also has great potential to increase the income of local communities because it allows direct transactions between tourists and business actors without going through external intermediaries. In the end, e-ICBT is expected to make tourist villages more independent, not only in terms of management, but also in improving community welfare through sustainable local economic empowerment.
