When there is no water on-site, and you have to fetch it, it is mainly women and young girls who take up their time and miss out on opportunities.

For women, the opportunity costs of water collection are high and have far-reaching implications. Having to fetch water drastically reduces the time they can spend with their families and care for their children, do household chores or even enjoy hobbies. For both boys and girls, collecting water can interfere with studies, sometimes even preventing them from going to school altogether.

Collecting water can harm the health of the whole family, especially children. If there is no access to water at home, even if the water comes from a safe source, the fact that it is transported and stored increases the risk that it will be contaminated with faeces before it is used. 

Water Connections: Our teams are changing that; for years, we have been designing, manufacturing and supplying water connections to villages in ultra-rural regions. Fair Future improves life for tens of thousands of people.

“Il primo passo quando non c’è un medico” comprende quattordici moduli teorico formazione e pratico esercizi che illustrano come comportarsi in caso di emergenza medica. È destinato agli insegnanti delle scuole rurali dell'Indonesia orientale.

Questo libro è stato interamente prodotto dalla Un futuro giusto e Amici buoni fondazioni. Si basa sul libro "Dove non c'è un medico"di David Wegner.

Da ora in poi, serve come manuale di riferimento per la formazione dei docenti nelle aree rurali dell’Indonesia orientale. Questo libro contiene tutte le informazioni sulla prevenzione, la cura dei pazienti, i primi soccorsi e il trattamento delle ferite, delle ustioni e dei morsi. L’autore impara a somministrare farmaci essenziali, a effettuare massaggi cardiaci e a eseguire tutti i gesti che salvano una vita.

Qui potete vedere il lavoro svolto dalle squadre mediche della fondazione. la versione .PDF Le mettiamo a disposizione. Tutto è stato tradotto, riveduto, corretto e adattato alle specifiche esigenze locali.

Il signor Regent è un buon amico della fondazione; abbiamo lavorato insieme per più di due anni. Inoltre, è un amico personale di Alexandre Wettstein, il CEO di Fair Future. 

Come il loro aereo Kupang Siamo appena arrivati e il Regente e sua moglie sono venuti direttamente a trovarci nella classe. È stata una grande gioia per noi, come per tutti gli insegnanti che hanno partecipato a questa prima giornata di formazione. Un vero onore anche per loro.

Sentivamo Khristofel Praing and his wife speak about this program with eloquent and laudatory words. The Regent told us that this program is sensational and beneficial. Indeed, as we have already explained, access to primary medical care here is almost impossible in eastern Indonesia's most rural and isolated regions.

Clean and healthy water is distributed almost everywhere now here in Mbinudita, East Sumba. This clean and healthy water supplies more than thirty reservoirs and twenty healthy sanitary facilities. All for the benefit of more than 2,500 people, nearly 65% of whom are children.

People are happy, and It's a significant change in their life. They also have to get used to living with clean water to change their habits. Imagine: Having lived a life without having access to toilets, without having access to clean water, and being constantly sick… You have to get used to feeling better now and having more time for yourself. Change your habits? This is where the most significant challenge lies.

What the foundation is setting up is innovativo e ingenious and cannot be done without the help of nearly a hundred teachers from the poorest and rural areas of East Sumba. And yes, teachers, like everywhere in the world, are the most influential people in the villages.

During these three or four training days, they will learn how to treat a wound and give first aid to an injured or sick child so that his situation does not worsen and becomes much more severe. But also, above all, determining when to call a doctor or go to the nearest medical centre. 

A simple picture is that of the book "Kawan Sehat", which means "the healthy friend", on which Amici buoni and Fair Future have been working for a few months. We are happy because the book is now finished, printed and ready to be loaded into the Truck of Life, which will leave tomorrow evening (08.12.22) for a five-day journey towards our Casa Kambera Base Camp.

As a reminder, this book features three characters around the themes of a healthier life, how not to get sick, avoid injuries, and everyday sores. It is aimed at children from the ultra-rural regions of eastern Indonesia, where we work. It is one of the tools set up as part of the program for access to primary medical care intended for children in ultra-peripheral regions.

We invite you to get to know "Kawan Sehat" in .PDF format, in its latest version, by clicking on this link. Happy reading, Kawan.

Residents of rural villages do not have access to primary care, and most medical centres are often several hours' walk away. The harshness of life here means that we are often injured, but nothing is available to treat us – no doctor, knowledge, medical equipment and, of course, no antiseptic or medicine.

These injuries can lead to the death of a child or an adult if they get worse. We must therefore act quickly. Fair Future has for years empowered schools and families in ultra-rural communities to take action in the event of an accident.

Today, we are taking a new step in this program.
