Through the Primary Medical Care program, Kawan Sehat health workers provide treatment for fevers, wounds, and malaria in villages lacking access to doctors. They carry essential medicines, adhere to established medical protocols, and refer emergency cases promptly to prevent delays in care.

Nine films showing medical care, water, and social work
This film gallery showcasing humanitarian work offers a glimpse into daily life in remote rural Indonesia.
Each film captures the reality we face when providing medical care, clean water, and social support to communities that are far beyond any healthcare system. The images depict our teams walking long distances, repairing wells, supporting health agents, delivering treatments, and explaining prevention in villages where infectious diseases continuously pose threats. These films also portray the communities themselves—highlighting their resilience, their way of organising daily survival, and the collaboration that makes every effort possible.
Through these few films, viewers can understand why field medical work is vital and how logistics, education, and water security save lives. The film gallery of humanitarian work also emphasises the solidarity between our teams, Kawan Baik Indonesia, the Kawan Sehat health agents, and the families of Sumba. These are not staged scenes but fragments of lived reality. The films capture the heat, dust, roads, rains, laughter, fear, and victories that define our mission. They depict what it means to care for people living without electricity, transport, or clean water. This gallery stands as a testament.
