Elthon spielt mit S Mbinudita' Kindern
Dies "Bild des Tages"Hier sehen wir Kawan Elthon und ein Dutzend Kinder, die Schüler unserer Schule in Ost-Sumba sind Mbinudita. Diese Kinder, wir alle hier, haben sie wachsen sehen, sie haben sich verändert und sie haben ein viel besseres Leben als damals, als wir 2019 ankamen, um hier zu bauen.“ neuen Schulgebäude.Die Aktivitäten, die wir mit dem mehr als 120 Kinder Die Kinder, die hier zur Schule gehen, sind Teil unserer täglichen Arbeit. Wir spielen auch viel zusammen, und sie beteiligen sich außerdem an verschiedenen Aufgaben an der Schule, neben dem Lernen zu lesen und zu schreiben.
Alle diese Kinder – wir kennen sie alle. – as well as their families – Und wir nennen sie nach ihren Vornamen. Ihr Leben ist sehr anders als das anderer Kinder in Indonesien. Für sie ist das Leben geprägt von "Härte". Gemeinsam leisten wir aber einen Beitrag für all diese Familien aus den ultra-ländlichen Regionen in Ostindonesien.
Elthon ist einer der Mitwirkenden von Fair Future und Kawan Baik Indonesien foundations. It is thanks to him that you can see the photos that we publish on the website, or on social networks. Among other things, he is in charge of the documentation and most importantly, he is a "child of East Sumba – Sumba Timur".
Hände waschen, um die Gesundheit und das Leben zu erhalten
Einige Formen von gastrointestinalen und respiratorischen Infektionen können zu schweren Komplikationen führen, insbesondere bei kleinen Kindern, älteren Menschen oder Menschen mit geschwächtem Immunsystem. Deshalb verhindert das Händedesinfizieren die Ausbreitung von Krankheiten. Tatsächlich können viele infektiöse und ansteckende Krankheiten durch kontaminierte Gegenstände von einer Person auf eine andere übertragen werden…
Projekt der Tiefbohrung in Laindatang
Dies "picture of the day" shows you a family from the village of Mabtakapidu/Laindatang, which like all the others, lives in the greatest destitution and extreme poverty. Malnutrition and infant mortality are high here.
Yes, this is one of the situations we want to act on as quickly as possible here. Fair Future und Gute Freunde are trying to help this community by offering them the possibility of having Sauberes Wasser in quantity in the village. We have the project to drill on-site at nearly 80m deep and build two or three reservoirs. We have found a water source close to the houses; only the funding is missing for the drilling. We have already received the submersible pump and solar panels for the site, and this is thanks to a private company in Europe.
The families of the village of Laindatang have a tough life, which is a euphemism. They do not eat every day, never meat, rarely vegetables. Rice is expensive, so they mix it with corn when they still have it and pests haven't destroyed it. To wash in the sense of "taking a shower" is maybe once a month for everyone. Her life is organized with less than two litres of water per person per day
To get poor-quality water here, the nearest well is a ten-hour walk there and back. You have to leave in the evening to return in the morning with only a few 5-10 litre jerrycans.

Die Schule, die wir Mbinudita 1999 in East Sumba gebaut haben
On these "Bild des Tages", we show you the school we built in 2020 and 2021 in Sumba East. In the beginning, there were three classes and 60 students. Today in February 2023, there are five classes and over 120 students.
Dies Schule is an integral part of the #rebuildmbinudita project, which consists of helping an entire rural community – more than 270 families, more than 2500 people – to have a better life.
This school, Gute Freunde and Fair Future Foundations built it in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, with materials that, for the most part, were delivered from Surabaya (more than 1500 kilometres away). It took almost two years of working in difficult conditions for all of us, for the local families to realize this. To build such a building without water, without electricity, without a road leading to the site.
Mbinudita? It is the name of a village in the heart of one of the most complicated regions in terms of access to water, food and medical care. Here, before our "arrival," there was no school, now there is one, the biggest and most beautiful of all in the province of Nusa Tenggara Timur, of Ost-Sumba (Sumba Timur). Here, families now have access to toilets, drinking water, etc.
This picture of the day was taken by Alexandre Wettstein, by Drone, on the SD Mbinudita school website
Ein traditioneller Brunnen in einem ländlichen Gebiet von East Sumba
Dies "Bild des Tages" shows you how families manage to have water at home for eating, drinking, bathing, taking care of children, watering livestock and animals, and watering gardens.
The vast majority of villages in this region, where Fair Future und Gute Freunde have been operating for so many years, do not have access to clean water, among other things! This well, dug by hand by the villagers themselves, is about 15 meters deep.
Most of the time, it is dry, or when it has water, it is of a colour that does not encourage consumption. It can be brown, beige, or chocolate, even with a little "consistency, thick" when there is little water in the well: This is because of a mixture of soil, sediments, bacteria and others microbes which reproduce there favourably. Or, it can be really white because the level of limestone is too high. In all cases, and of all colours, this water is bad and, in the medium term, dangerous for the health of families.
Lehrer in ländlichen Dörfern heilen und retten Leben!
The magic of this "Primäre medizinische Versorgung" program? It's just that it's unique in the world and it works. The first promotion of about sixty teachers who have followed the training in primary medical care in rural areas, tells us about their "exploits" and their work as first aiders. They gain self-confidence, that's the most important thing, and we note it.
The teachers, in their village and thanks to the knowledge and medical care equipment they acquired during the courses last December, provide medical care for injured or sick children. Medical care is provided and lives are saved.
Die Lehrkräfte stellen primary medical care
Die Magie dieses Programms “Primary Medica Care” liegt darin, dass es einzigartig in der Welt ist und funktioniert. Die erste Gruppe von sechzig Lehrern, die die Ausbildung primary medical care in ländlichen Gebieten absolviert haben, erzählt uns von ihren “Erlebnissen” und ihrer Arbeit als Rettungskräfte. Sie gewinnen Selbstvertrauen, das ist das Wichtigste, und wir notieren dies.
Das Vorhandensein von Wasser ermöglicht ihnen, zu trinken und zu essen, und sie können sich besser ernähren.
Dies "Bild des Tages" shows you a person watering their garden in order to grow their own vegetables for the family at home.
Die Water Connections program works wonderfully, water makes things possible here in East Sumba, and that's what it's all about. Clean water at home for eating, drinking and having a healthy life.
For months, Fair Future and Kawan Baik Indonesien foundations have seen a fundamental change in the habits of families who benefit from the "Water Connections" program. Gardens are created, mainy gardens actually. People eat better, drink more, have more energy and are less sick. This observation fills us with joy and comforts us in our choices and decisions. Access to better health has always been the foundation's primary mission, and healing people by giving them water is incredible.
Gardens appear in front of the small houses of wood, earth and bamboo, on the site of our school and everywhere in the village, near one of the thirty water tanks we have built. Previously, water for watering gardens was not a family's priority, with only a few litres a day available for everything. Consequently, new activities are created, and new opportunities arise. Families are gradually being rebuilt. They acquire a healthier life, and they are much healthier too.
Water Connections – This is the name of this vast program managed by the Fair Future and Kawan Baik foundations. It gives access to clean water and healthy toilets to the rural populations of Indonesia.
Neue Sanitäranlagen für ein gesünderes Leben
Dies "Bild des Tages" shows you the healthy sanitation facilities we are building here in East Sumba. Having provided access to drinking water – through the Water Connections program – to these 270 families in Mbinudita, East Sumba also offers the possibility of having toilets for the first time in these villages. And it was unimaginable a few months ago for these families living in rural areas.
Can you imagine what the health consequences are for these hundreds, these thousands of families who defecate behind a tree or the house? In a hole and having no water to flush the place? We see it every day here. Sick children suffering from diarrhoea are the daily life of our medical teams.
Die Fair Future und Gute Freunde foundations have made more than 20 sanitary fixtures, many of which look like this. Clean and hygienic, with water to rinse them off after use, showers to wash up, and safety tanks to collect wastewater. And now families have a healthier life. People are less sick, children suffer less from diarrhoea, and infant mortality is decreasing and will continue to decline.
Water Connections – This vast program is supported by the Fair Future and Kawan Baik foundations. It provides access to drinking water and clean toilets to rural populations in Indonesia.
HDPE-Rohrrollen, die wir zur Herstellung der Water Connections. verwenden.
In diesem "Bild des Tages", Die Bilder, die Ende letzten Dezember aufgenommen wurden, zeigen unsere Teams vor Ort, die fleißig mit der Montage beginnen. 250 m Ein Rollen HDPE-Rohr. Die Kinder des Dorfes Mbinudita versammeln sich vor den Rohren, um frisches, sauberes und gesundes Wasser zu trinken, das von dort her fließt. Dies ist das erste Mal in ihrem Leben, dass sie Wasser dieser Qualität aus einem Rohr trinken.
Aus den drei Tiefbohrungen, die wir gebohrt haben, verbinden wir die Daten. 30 Wasserbehälter, über 20 Sanierungsanlagen und alle zahlreichen anderen Infrastrukturen, die Fair Future und Gute Freunde Fundamente wurden errichtet Die letzten 20 Monate in Ost-Sumba. Jeder Wassertank hat eine Kapazität von zwischen 7500 und 3500 Literate rein und sicher Wasser. Jedes Badezimmer verfügt über zwei Toiletten, Duschen und eine Wasserquelle zum Waschen der Kleidung.
Diese Water Connections – from the name of this vast program managed by the Fair Future and Kawan Baik foundations and which provide access to clean water to the rural water populations of Indonesia – are made thanks to these enormous rolls of pipes HDPE thermoplastics. To date, it's more than zehn Kilometer HDEP-Rohre dass wir alle hier zusammengearbeitet haben, Wasser gefördert, verlegt und angeschlossen haben, um mehr als 2700 Die Leute hier in #Mbinudita.
Rein Wasser im Haus zum ersten Mal
Last December, while we were on site here in the village of Mbinudita, the Fair Future and Gute Freunde teams linked several infrastructures built for and around the Water Connections project by means of + /- 4000 meters of PVC HDPE pipes which we have now buried.
In doing so, we entered a significant number of houses, and for the first time in the history of these families, they had running water directly in the kitchens. You had to hear the cries of joy, the laughter too. And tears of joy for these families who suddenly have access to a source of clean water at home. Water connections create a clean and safe water network for families from rural areas in eastern Indonesia.
This image of the day shows you one of those very emotional moments, during which our teams entered one of the houses with a 1-inch pipe to connect it from the second deep borehole to the reservoir which is there and that we have built.
Frauen, Kinder und Wasser im Zuhause
Indonesische Frauen spielen aufgrund ihrer traditionellen Aufgaben wie Wasser sammeln, Kochen, Reinigen und Kindertransport eine entscheidende Rolle in der Wasserversorgung. Diese Frauen aus diesen ultra-ländlichen Gebieten im Osten Indonesiens sind stark. Sie repräsentieren hervorragend die Stärke und den Mut, den man braucht, um hier in diesem riesigen Land zu überleben.
