Water On The Way…
10 active prevention posters in villages and schools
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.

Field stories
Visual field reports documenting medical care, disease prevention, water access, logistics and emergency response in ultra-rural Indonesia. Photos and short films produced by our teams show real conditions, methods and measurable health impact, aligned with WHO principles and community-based care.
The Stories & Communication category translates field medicine into clear, truthful narratives. It shares case realities, community voices, and operational context behind our programs, without sensationalism. Articles explain why prevention, logistics, and long-term follow-up matter, using simple language grounded in clinical facts. This section supports health education, transparency, and trust, aligning communication with WHO principles on risk communication and community engagement. Every story is built from observed events, verified data, and respect for patients and families, including what worked and what failed.
In ultra rural Indonesia, access to medical care depends on distance, roads, and signal. The Kawan Sehat Medical App was created to change that reality by enabling trained community health agents to deliver structured primary medical care without internet access, while generating reliable medical data for long term action.
Hand hygiene rural Indonesia remains one of the most overlooked yet critical medical challenges in ultra-rural communities. Where water, soap, and sanitation are missing, infections spread easily. Education and simple infrastructure become powerful medical tools when healthcare access is limited.
Beyond the rapid test, each screening includes education, explanation, and practical advice. This moment of dialogue often becomes the first real medical consultation families have ever received, turning a diagnosis into immediate protection.
This Mbajik solar evaluation began at night, not with tools but with a film. Children and adults gathered to watch themselves on screen, for the second time. The first was in October, during installation. This time, it was different. This time, electricity was already part of their lives.
This new picture of the day shows solar light for children delivered through patience and care. In an ultra-rural classroom, a lamp is not simply handed over. Time is taken to explain, to show, to ensure understanding. For children living without electricity, light means safety, learning, and dignity once the sun goes down.
In eastern Indonesia, ultra-rural medical care depends on people who walk where vehicles cannot go. In regions cut off from roads, electricity, and doctors, Kawan Sehat health agents provide first-line treatment, prevention, and education. Their work fills the growing gaps left by under-equipped Puskesmas and overstretched hospitals.
Inside the Laindatang reservoir, a graduation scale measures every ten-thousand litres of stored water. This precise tool allows safe monitoring, controlled use, and long-term protection of clean water. In ultra-rural villages, measuring water accurately is not technical detail. It is prevention and survival.
Before water reaches the tank in Laindatang, it is filtered by hand. Custom-built filtration modules remove debris, organic matter, and insects, reducing contamination risks. This system turns rainwater harvesting into preventive medicine for families living far from any medical infrastructure.
A light steel roof now protects the Laindatang reservoir, shielding filtered rainwater from heat, light, and contamination. Built with villagers by Fair Future and Kawan Baik Indonesia, this structure turns rainfall into safe drinking water and prevents avoidable disease.
This film gallery humanitarian work shares nine essential films documenting our field actions. Each one captures medical care, water access, education, and community resilience in remote Indonesian villages. These stories explain the daily challenges and the solutions built together.
For five days, we lived and worked in Haray to create The Day Night Changed, a film showing how electricity reached Mbajik School for the first time. This is the story of before, during, and after, in a district where over 100 schools still wait for power.
For five days we worked to complete the electrification of Mbajik School the movie, carrying heavy equipment, wiring every room, and sleeping in the village. This project brings light to 80 children and 12 residents, in a district where over 100 schools still have no electricity.
