Acting Now…
Nearly 1,000 patients treated per month
Following nine months of failed drilling, we've constructed a 114 m³ reservoir in Laindatang, which is entirely powered by rainwater. Almost 300 villagers, predominantly children, now have access to clean water. The project kicked off in June and is now complete. Together, we can bring an end to the water crisis.
Delivering essential medical care in villages with no clinics or doctors, saving lives and building trust.
In this article you finally discover who are Kawan Sehat health agents, not as numbers but as people. Through portraits and short testimonies they explain who they are, where they live, the patients they care for and why they chose to become the first line of medical care in remote East Sumba hills every day.
In the hills of East Sumba, Kawan Sehat health agents walk for hours to reach families who live far from any clinic or road. Equipped with a medical backpack and solid training, they treat fevers, wounds and malaria, document every case, and call our doctors when a life is in danger and transfer is possible.
In this image Kawan Sehat wound care happens on a bamboo floor where clinics are days away. The agent irrigates, debrides if needed, applies a sterile dressing, checks tetanus, and teaches danger signs. Early care stops infection before it spreads to the blood. This is how primary medicine prevents funerals.
Kawan Sehat agents are trained women from rural villages who deliver medical care where no other system exists. Their work is vital, human, and lifesaving—guided by knowledge, trust, and compassion.
Fair Future Foundation and Kawan Baik Indonesia made a primary medical care donation of CHF 19,248.96 (around IDR 400 million) covering 32% of the program’s 2025–2026 budget. This funding sustains healthcare access for thousands of people in ultra-rural Indonesian regions lacking clinics, doctors, or medicines.
Primary Medical Care brings professional health services to isolated areas of Indonesia. Without clinics or doctors, we train agents, treat the sick, and deliver essential medicine and care, directly to the people.
In May, 21 Kawan Sehat health agents completed intensive training in primary care. They now serve nearly 1,000 patients each month in remote Indonesian villages, offering medical treatment, prevention, and education where no doctors are available.
Erwin, the Field Coordinator of the Primary Medical Care programme, spends days crossing muddy roads, broken bridges, and steep trails to deliver medicines to Kawan Sehat agents. His work keeps remote East Sumba villages connected to lifesaving care, dignity, and trusted medical support.

Fair Future creates mobile health apps designed for health agents working in remote areas. These offline-capable tools help diagnose diseases, manage emergencies, and guide rural care, empowering medical action.
Fair Future Foundation has published two essential guides: an updated training manual for health agents and a booklet on using educational posters, helping communities in remote Indonesia manage health challenges and save lives.
