Dr. Lutfi Fadil Lokman, Founder and Chief Strategist of Hospitals Beyond Boundaries (HBB), provides healthcare to underserved communities in Southeast Asia. After a personal accident, Lutfi pursued his dream of accessible healthcare by establishing community-run clinics, primarily focusing on maternal and child health. HBB operates as a social enterprise, training local youth as healthcare workers to ensure sustainability.
To date, they’ve served over 10,000 individuals. Lutfi’s work aligns with SDG 3 (Good Health and Well-being), addressing broader social issues by improving living conditions alongside medical care. For his work he was awarded the Forbes 30 Under 30 title in 2017.
To me, ‘making an impact’ means creating meaningful, positive change that addresses pressing challenges and enhances the well-being of individuals and communities. It involves taking deliberate actions that lead to lasting improvements and inspire others to contribute to a better future.
