Access to clean and safe water is a major concern for families residing in East Sumba. The lack of such facilities has posed a significant challenge for residents. To get water, many families are forced to undertake long journeys to the nearest source, which is often contaminated and unfit for consumption. As a result, waterborne diseases have become common, resulting in deteriorating health conditions for the population.<\/h1>\n

In diesem \"Bild des Tages<\/a>" shows you what children do several times a day: Fetch water for the family with some 5-litre jerrycans<\/a>. Most of the time, the young girls take care of this<\/a>. Here in this photo, it is a young child of ten years. There are no daughters in the family. He does this job instead of going to school. He and his family have only two litres<\/strong> or less of water<\/a> a day for eating, drinking, bathing and everything else.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, like here in Tana Mbanas<\/a> (Sumba Tenggah<\/em>), there is still a vast majority of villages in Sumba that do not have access<\/a> to clean drinking water. In these villages, the inhabitants often depend on surface water sources such as rivers, lakes or ponds, which bacteria, viruses, chemicals or by animals and insects mostly contaminate. <\/p>\n

The lack of clean water has severe consequences for the health of the inhabitants. Waterborne diseases, such as Darmdurchfall<\/a>, cholera and typhoid, Hepatitis A<\/a>, Malaria<\/a> und Dengue fever<\/a>, are common where access to clean water and toilets is limited or absent. These diseases can be severe and even fatal, especially in children, pregnant women and the elderly.<\/p>\n

To help villages without clean water in Sumba, Fair Future and Kawan Baik are implementing effective measures to improve access to clean and healthy water. Our solutions include drilling deep wells with our equipment, construction of water treatment plants, storage tanks, rainwater harvesting and storage, and installation of water management systems—irrigation and construction of healthy sanitation facilities.<\/p>\n

We are still seeking funding<\/a> and technical resources to set up sustainable, safe and clean water infrastructure in this region, one of the world's poorest and most dry.<\/p>\n
