Over the past decade, Indonesia has made progress in expanding healthcare coverage. National health insurance programs, community health centers, and campaigns for maternal and child health have reached more people than ever before.
In remote areas, basic health services are still out of reach. Many families walk hours to the nearest clinic. For people living with disabilities or chronic conditions, daily healthcare access is limited not just by distance, but by affordability, infrastructure, and stigma.
Vulnerable groups, elderly populations, informal workers, and low-income families, continue to face systemic barriers. Preventive care is often a luxury, and curative care comes too late.
Why It Matters:
Health is more than the absence of illness. It’s the foundation of dignity, opportunity, and growth. When one community lacks access, it ripples through generations.
Creating equity in health is not just a government task, it’s a shared responsibility.
Health equity isn’t a dream, it’s a direction.
Let’s walk it forward, together.
