Réapparition de la polio dans une région reculée de l’Indonésie : une action urgente nécessaire
Le poliomyélite revient en Indonésie, notamment dans les zones où nous opérons. Cette flambée est liée à des pratiques d’hygiène inadéquates, à un assainissement insuffisant et à un accès restreint à l’eau potable. Avec des ressources limitées, nous combattons énergiquement cette maladie en lançant des campagnes de prévention et en améliorant l’accès à l’eau ainsi que les installations d’assainissement pour protéger les communautés vulnérables.
Kawan Sehat Workers Treat Dozens of Cases Daily
The daily case load managed by Kawan Sehat health agents through the #PrimaryMedicalCare program is truly remarkable. Each day, they deliver crucial first aid services, saving lives and enhancing health for individuals who lack access to basic care. Visit our photo gallery to see the extraordinary efforts of these women and the foundation at work on site.
Présentation du nouveau camion n’Load pour les projets d’eau
Nous vous présentons notre nouveau camion de logistique, le “ Truck n’Load ”, équipé d’un réservoir d’eau de 1 000 litres pour fournir de l’eau potable dans les villages reculés.

Alex prendra le camion à Surabaya la semaine prochaine – une addition incroyable à notre fondation !
Switch to Rainwater Tank After Drilling Ends
As previously stated, Fair Future has ceased the drilling project after nine months of extensive efforts. Over the last three weeks, our focus has shifted to an alternative solution: constructing a 100m³ underground rainwater reservoir to supply clean water to a community in urgent need. Project plans and cost estimates are attached for your review.
Healthy Living Posters Distributed to Local Health Centers
We have distributed our healthy living posters to local Puskesmas (health centers), and their directors were delighted. The posters are engaging and easy to comprehend, incorporating local characters and language. Teaching rural communities simple methods for disease prevention, such as handwashing, is truly rewarding.
MoU Signed to Expand Primary Medical Care in East Sumba
We have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the East Sumba authorities to improve our primary health care program. Through this collaboration involving the health, education and social services sectors, we will increase the number of Kawan Sehat health workers to ensure that rural communities receive adequate medical care.
Radio Spots Raise Awareness of Infectious Disease Prevention
As part of our infectious disease prevention programs, we are producing audio spots broadcast on local and national Indonesian radio stations. These spots feature real-life scenes from rural families and are voiced by our doctors and collaborators. Filled with humor, they are highly effective in spreading awareness.
Laindatang School Children Receive Unique Water Initiative T-Shirts
Today at the Laindatang Water Connections site, we met with the 78 schoolchildren, each receiving a bamboo cotton t-shirt with a drawing of 13-year-old Eben, a local child. The artwork symbolises our completed water supply project for the village, which includes tanks, toilets and access to clean water. The children were delighted not only to have clean water but also to receive these unique t-shirts!
Laindatang Water Project Shifts to Rainwater Tank Solution
After nine months of drilling in Laindatang for the #WaterConnections project, we are halting the work due to technical and geological challenges. The new plan is to build a 100-cubic-meter rainwater reservoir to provide clean water for 300 people. Drilling will resume after the reservoir is completed.
