Leo Rulino

Leo Rulino is a health workforce educator working to strengthen frontline care in Indonesia. He is the Founder of Perawat.org and the Training Manager at Noora Health Indonesia, where he advances practical, bias-aware education for nurses and other healthcare workers. Trained as a nurse with experience in both clinical care and health education, Leo brings a frontline perspective to designing large-scale training systems that are grounded in real patient needs.

At Noora Health Indonesia, Leo leads large-scale capacity-building programs for healthcare workers in public health facilities using a cascade training-of-trainers model to expand reach and sustainability. To date, his team has trained over 4,000 healthcare workers across 12 regencies, enabling cascade training to more than 20,000 additional providers, including community health cadres. This work has supported more than 100,000 family caregiver education sessions nationwide and advanced more gender-equitable caregiving roles.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Leo founded Perawat.org as a free digital library to support Indonesian nurses working in isolation with limited access to clinical guidance. What began as an emergency response has grown into one of Indonesia’s largest open-access nursing education platforms. Working with a national network of nurse educators as contributing writers, he has curated more than 400 clinical care guide articles, supporting thousands of nurses across the country. Today, Perawat.org reaches an average of 800,000 monthly users and more than 5 million annual visitors, helping improve the consistency and quality of bedside care.

In 2025, Leo launched Merawat Tanpa Bias (Care Without Bias), a movement under Perawat.org that promotes humane, inclusive, and bias-free care through education, public communication, and digital campaigns. Looking ahead, Leo is committed to reducing gaps between rural and urban health services by expanding digital-first learning, strengthening professional networks, and scaling cascade training models that reach frontline workers in under-resourced settings.
