Kawan Sehat agents are trained women from rural villages who deliver medical care where no other system exists. Their work is vital, human, and lifesaving—guided by knowledge, trust, and compassion.
PRIMARY MEDICAL CARE AND DISEASE PREVENTION
Where no doctor is available, care must reach people directly. Fair Future Foundation delivers primary medical care and disease prevention through trained local health agents following structured protocols. Treatment of common illnesses, fever, wounds, and malaria is combined with hygiene, vaccination, and community education. This integrated model reflects WHO public health principles, where prevention and care form a single, continuous medical response.
The Medical & Prevention category focuses on evidence-based field medicine and public health actions implemented in ultra-rural contexts. It documents how primary medical care, disease prevention, and early intervention reduce morbidity and mortality where access to healthcare is absent. Articles address infectious diseases, maternal and child health, hygiene, vaccination, and community education, aligned with WHO recommendations. Beyond theory, this section presents concrete medical practices carried out on the ground by trained local health agents, highlighting how prevention remains the most effective and sustainable medical act in vulnerable populations.
Primary medical care donation for 2025/26 program
Fair Future Foundation and Kawan Baik Indonesia made a primary medical care donation of CHF 19,248.96 (around IDR 400 million) covering 32% of the program’s 2025–2026 budget. This funding sustains healthcare access for thousands of people in ultra-rural Indonesian regions lacking clinics, doctors, or medicines.
Primary Medical Care in Remote Areas
Primary Medical Care brings professional health services to isolated areas of Indonesia. Without clinics or doctors, we train agents, treat the sick, and deliver essential medicine and care, directly to the people.
Malaria mosquito nets distributed in East Sumba villages
We distributed 450 malaria mosquito nets across East Sumba villages. Each family received a net, printed guidance, and a sewing kit for repairs. By combining distribution with education, families learned why correct use matters for preventing deadly malaria infections.
Malaria education sessions in Umalulu East Sumba
In four villages of East Sumba, Fair Future led days of malaria education and screening. Communities learned, played, asked questions, and discovered how to protect their families. Hundreds were tested, treated, and equipped with mosquito nets. Together, knowledge saves lives.
Medical equipment donation to RSUD Waingapu hospital
Fair Future delivered CHF 12000 in essential medical equipment to RSUD Waingapu, Sumba’s sole public hospital serving nearly 1’000’000 people. This medical equipment donation was based on the real needs expressed by doctors and nurses, ensuring frontline teams receive the tools they truly require.
Malaria education billboards installed in East Sumba
As part of the East Sumba Malaria Prevention Project 2025, Fair Future and partners installed 20 large billboards across rural communities. These visuals teach families how to recognize malaria symptoms and protect themselves. A vital step to reduce infections in one of Indonesia’s hardest-hit regions.
Malaria rapid tests reveal cases in Umalulu
During our fieldwork in Umalulu for the East Sumba Malaria Prevention Project, rapid diagnostic tests confirmed new positive malaria cases—children, women, and adolescents—despite being outside peak season. Without testing, cases remain invisible. Testing saves lives.
Malaria prevention project East Sumba progresses in 2025
Three weeks into the malaria prevention project, East Sumba has seen real progress. The IRS campaign is complete, 20 prevention billboards are in place, and the education phase now begins. This malaria prevention project strengthens awareness, treatment, and long-term protection.
Malaria lab training strengthens diagnostics in East Sumba
Malaria lab training in East Sumba brought together 28 analysts from all health centres and the RSUD hospital. Under WHO-certified mentors, they refined slide reading and microscopy skills, strengthening diagnostic accuracy and treatment speed in rural Indonesia.
Indoor Residual Spraying malaria – Fair Future Foundation
The Kawan Against Malaria program delivers Indoor Residual Spraying malaria operations in East Sumba. Trained teams spray bamboo and wooden homes, surface by surface, to kill mosquitoes and reduce transmission. Each treated house becomes a safer place for children and families.
