Abstract

The main objective of this research is to determine the impact of developing Smart Tourism on empowering the Bojongkulur Tourism Village community. This research uses descriptive qualitative methods. Data were collected using surveys and interviews with village government figures, tourism awareness groups, and the surrounding community. The research results show that developing tourist villages with the concept of smart tourism through community empowerment is a solution for village development. In addition, implementing the smart tourism concept also improves the quality of tourism experiences, community welfare, effectiveness, competitiveness, and business objectives and ultimately contributes to overall competitiveness. The research results showed that the Bojongkulur Tourism Village has implemented smart tourism through the Bojongkulur website and social media @desabojongkulur. In 2022, Bojongkulur Village won 1st place as the best social media management village in West Java at the 2022 digital literacy festival (Viral). Bojongkulur Village has partnered with academics and other parties. Community empowerment is very important in advancing tourist villages, and additional knowledge is needed to go to tourist villages.
