Malaria continues to pose a daily threat in this area. Through Kawan Against Malaria, we monitor cases, test all fevers, protect homes, and educate families. The use of bed nets, spraying, and prompt treatment turns statistical data into lives that endure quietly, rather than ending prematurely.

Fair Future Foundation, a Swiss-based non-profit, is an innovative force in global healthcare and social aid.
Know your status, take an HIV test now – HIV prevention poster used by Kawan Sehat health agents.
We work in some of the most remote regions of Southeast Asia, where there are no doctors, no electricity, and often no clean water. For over sixteen years, Fair Future has been on the ground, creating long-term medical and social solutions with the communities who live here.
Through the Primary Medical Care programme, we treat wounds, infections, HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, and chronic illnesses directly in remote villages. With access to clean water, safe reservoirs, and nutritional support, communities can finally prevent disease rather than suffer from it.
Our approach is simple: stay close, listen, understand, and act with science and solidarity. Every action we take aims to strengthen families, improve health, and reduce preventable deaths.
Your support sustains this work. It transforms long days under the sun, muddy roads, and emergency care into measurable change for those who have nowhere else to turn. Alex Wettstein – Fair Future Foundation – Updated in November 2025
Help us provide medical care in places without doctors
Every franc you give funds direct medical care. Medicines, dressings, lab tests, and clean water systems that prevent children from getting sick. It also powers solar lights to keep vaccines cold and make nighttime care possible.

WHAT WE ARE DOING NOW
Field stories of wounds treated, clean water built, and families protected
These articles are not reports — they are moments from the field. They show how we care for wound infections, bring clean water to villages, train health agents, and travel days to reach isolated families. This is the reality of our medical work.
Rainwater tank connected in Laindatang East Sumba
The 114.7 m³ rainwater tank in Laindatang, named Matawai Urang, is now fully connected to gutters and filtration, ready to collect clean water for 300 residents. This rainwater tank Laindatang project also features an information panel, sharing the story of safe water access for the community.
Malaria mosquito nets distributed in East Sumba villages
We distributed 450 malaria mosquito nets across East Sumba villages. Each family received a net, printed guidance, and a sewing kit for repairs. By combining distribution with education, families learned why correct use matters for preventing deadly malaria infections.
Malaria education sessions in Umalulu East Sumba
In four villages of East Sumba, Fair Future led days of malaria education and screening. Communities learned, played, asked questions, and discovered how to protect their families. Hundreds were tested, treated, and equipped with mosquito nets. Together, knowledge saves lives.
Medical equipment donation to RSUD Waingapu hospital
Fair Future delivered CHF 12000 in essential medical equipment to RSUD Waingapu, Sumba’s sole public hospital serving nearly 1’000’000 people. This medical equipment donation was based on the real needs expressed by doctors and nurses, ensuring frontline teams receive the tools they truly require.
Malaria education billboards installed in East Sumba
As part of the East Sumba Malaria Prevention Project 2025, Fair Future and partners installed 20 large billboards across rural communities. These visuals teach families how to recognize malaria symptoms and protect themselves. A vital step to reduce infections in one of Indonesia’s hardest-hit regions.
Malaria rapid tests reveal cases in Umalulu
During our fieldwork in Umalulu for the East Sumba Malaria Prevention Project, rapid diagnostic tests confirmed new positive malaria cases—children, women, and adolescents—despite being outside peak season. Without testing, cases remain invisible. Testing saves lives.
Malaria prevention project East Sumba progresses in 2025
Three weeks into the malaria prevention project, East Sumba has seen real progress. The IRS campaign is complete, 20 prevention billboards are in place, and the education phase now begins. This malaria prevention project strengthens awareness, treatment, and long-term protection.
Malaria lab training strengthens diagnostics in East Sumba
Malaria lab training in East Sumba brought together 28 analysts from all health centres and the RSUD hospital. Under WHO-certified mentors, they refined slide reading and microscopy skills, strengthening diagnostic accuracy and treatment speed in rural Indonesia.
Our 2024 Impact in Remote Villages
These figures reflect real patients, real treatments, and real kilometres crossed to bring care where no doctor is available.
Medical consultations delivered in ultra-rural villages where no doctor, no clinic, and no alternative care exists.
Litres of safe water storage built or funded, allowing families to drink, cook, and wash without risking disease.
People reached through daily health education on hygiene, malaria prevention, clean water, and basic nutrition.
Children who can now study, read, and move safely after dark thanks to clean, reliable solar light in their homes and schools.
2024 Annual Report – 15 Years of Concrete Action
Discover Fair Future’s 2024 Annual Report—a compelling testament to our work in East Sumba, from primary healthcare and access to clean water to nutrition and education programmes. This year marked our 15th anniversary, a significant milestone in resilience, impact, and innovation. The full report, available in both French and English, reflects the lives we have touched and the urgent challenges that lie ahead.

One story that explains our work
A story you shouldn’t skip
Climate change is no longer tomorrow’s problem. In East Indonesia, it already shapes daily illness, hunger, and water scarcity.
Our core programmes in ultra rural Indonesia
We work in the extreme east of Indonesia, in ultra rural villages with no doctors, no electricity, and often no clean water. These programmes turn medical knowledge, community effort, and solidarity into concrete solutions for families who live far from any form of care.
