Traditional travel safety information is often:
- Outdated or generalized
- Controlled by centralized entities
- Difficult to verify for authenticity
- Not easily accessible in real-time
Our solution leverages blockchain technology to create:
- A tamper-proof record of safety reports
- Community-driven verification mechanisms
- Transparent resolution tracking
- Global accessibility without centralized control

The Travel Safety App is a decentralized application built on the Stellar blockchain using Soroban smart contracts. It enables travelers to report safety concerns, hazards, or incidents in various locations, creating a global, tamper-proof safety database for the travel community.
This smart contract solution allows travelers to:
- Report safety issues in specific locations
- Assign severity ratings to safety concerns
- Verify safety reports for authenticity
- Track resolution of safety issues over time
- Access a transparent history of safety information in travel destinations
The application combines the transparency and immutability of blockchain technology with the practical need for reliable safety information while traveling.
Our vision is to create a global, community-driven safety network for travelers that helps people make informed decisions about their destinations. By leveraging blockchain technology, we ensure that safety information remains tamper-proof, accessible, and transparent.
The Travel Safety App aims to:
- Empower travelers with reliable safety information
- Create a global community of safety-conscious travelers
- Provide local authorities with validated safety concerns that need addressing
- Reduce travel-related incidents through increased awareness
- Bridge the information gap between official travel advisories and real-time, on-the-ground conditions
-
