The Custodians App is an innovative tool designed to tackle the problem of waste dispersed in nature by involving citizens, institutions and companies in collective actions to protect the environment. Users can upload geolocalised photos of polluted areas, coordinators can take charge of the reports and organise clean-up events, once finished, they close the report by uploading a photo of the cleaned area. The application thus provides a detailed picture of the state and severity of the problem of scattered waste: by gathering information on the extent and location of polluted areas, it facilitates clean-up coordination. A problem-solving tool that turns problems into challenge, solution and action. The Custodians App as Citizen Science: each citizen contributes by providing information that enriches a database fundamental to scientific research, with the aim of promoting corporate awareness and getting to the source of the problem.
Have you discovered a polluted area? With The Custodians App you can geolocate the exact spot and send a report in seconds. The first action to protect the environment starts with you.
The Custodians App is an organised ecosystem for clean-ups: it allows coordinators to manage reports and create clean-up events, to which users can easily register themselves through an integrated coordination system.
At the end of the clean-up operation, the report is closed by uploading a photo of the cleaned area, thus completing the clean-up cycle.
