08Environmental Benefits

The programme's environmental benefit takes the form of journeys that are not made: services come to the village, and clinical meetings are held remotely. The figures below are estimates derived from recorded activities, not emission measurements. The self-assessment scores for this aspect are deliberately low.

Telehealth documentation

Partly open

Telehealth is listed as a process indicator in the technical guidelines: remote consultation between facilities and with other health workers. The practice ran for years before a module for it existed, and its trail is in the logbook: students placed across scattered clinics and hospitals discuss real patient cases with preceptors and consultants in online meetings, and they themselves recorded the location as Zoom, Google Meet, or Daring (online) at the time.

Evidence

From the JEJAK logbook Remote meetings recorded in JEJAK

106attendances at case discussions held online
25students recorded them
136different places where in-person case discussions were held

Counted from the location field in the logbook, filled in by participants themselves at the time: rows whose location was written as Zoom, Google Meet, Daring (online), or Online. The records run from 28 Aug 2023 to 4 Nov 2026. For comparison: 460 attendances at in-person case discussions were spread across 136 different places — the distance that need not be travelled when the session is held remotely.

JEJAK's dedicated modules have not yet added anything to the figures above: scheduled Case-Based Discussion 181 sessions and remote Clinical Consultation 0 consultations, both opened only in September 2026. Their counters are kept here so they fill in on their own once the modules are used.

Context — not evidence for this claim

What is not yet available. What is recorded are case discussions between students and their supervisors, not remote patient consultations; the patients do not take part in those meetings. The meetings themselves take place on channels outside JEJAK, so only the location typed by participants is stored, not links or recordings. JEJAK's scheduled Case-Based Discussion and Clinical Consultation modules opened only in September 2026 and are not yet in use, and village doctors' consultations with Puskesmas happen outside JEJAK.

8.2

Data/evidence of reduced travel

Partly open

Journeys are avoided from two directions. Services are held where residents are — village doctor home visits, Posyandu, Posbindu, Prolanis — and academic meetings are held online, so students scattered across teaching sites do not need to gather. Only the journeys that truly disappear are counted, net of two deductions shown openly in the table: only some participants would actually have travelled had the activity not been held that way, and the journeys made by staff in their place are subtracted. Longcase home visits therefore count as zero — the journey moves to the student rather than disappearing.

In short: 10,278 return journeys were not made, about 125,664 kilometres, which in the central scenario equals 7,257 kg CO₂ not released. Basis of calculation: a motorcycle doing 40 km per litre and the IPCC 2006 default emission factor for petrol, 2.31 kg CO₂ per litre — equal to 58 grams of CO₂ per kilometre. Return distances are assumed to be 12 km for residents travelling to the nearest facility and 20 km for students travelling to campus or to wherever a session is held. This figure moves with JEJAK data.

The top five are chosen from different villages (the largest target group per village); the rest are in date order. Post titles are shown in their original Indonesian.

What is not yet available. Two things are still assumptions, not data: the return distance for each group (village-to-facility and student-to-session distances are not recorded in JEJAK, so one figure per group is used with three scaling scenarios) and the share of participants who would actually have travelled. Online activities that do not replace travel — self-study, reflection, goal setting — are deliberately not counted. Emissions are calculated, not measured.

What is not yet available. The impact on environment-related diseases has not been measured.

Evidence of clean water and sanitation at programme sites

Restricted

The technical guidelines require village doctors' housing to have access to clean water and decent sanitation. Clean water and sanitation conditions in the focus villages themselves are not yet recorded.

Evidence

What is not yet available. Clean water and sanitation conditions in focus villages have not been measured; the self-assessment score for promoting basic sanitation is 1 out of 5.
