Water On The Way…
Dozens of ultra-rural villages visited each month
After years of walking to find dirty water, villages like Laindatang, Hambarita or Mbinudita can now access clean water from community reservoirs they built themselves. Clean water reduces diarrhea, skin infections, and fear. This is a true reflection of dignity in daily life.

The training manual for Kawan Sehat health agents in the #PrimaryMedicalCare program, containing 14 modules over 150 pages, will be reprinted after revisions and additions.

These will involve specific training and new posters distributed in ultra-rural villages, schools, and medical centers in East Sumba.
For our #PrimaryMedicalCare program, the Swiss Foundation has decided to replace plastic medical kits with sustainable and eco-friendly backpacks made from recycled materials.

In 2024, we’re working on distributing 2,000 SolarBuddy solar lamps to 2,000 children and families, and 2,000 homes across East Sumba. These villages and schools have no electricity. This project, in collaboration with SolarBuddy, Kawan Baik and Rotary International, will bring light to homes and schools.
After two years of uninterrupted success, our #PrimaryMedicalCare program is evolving in August 2024. With a stronger focus on advanced training for Kawan Sehat health agents, we aim to meet the immense healthcare needs, covering 20 of East Sumba’s 22 districts, and ensuring medical supplies for the next 12 months.
