Poland to Distribute Crisis Survival Guide to All Households
The guide, prepared by Polish ministries, will advise citizens on handling crises, including war, natural disasters, and power outages.
- Poland is preparing a comprehensive survival guide for distribution to every household by the end of 2025, as part of its Civil Protection and Civil Defense Program.
- The guide will cover survival during crises such as prolonged power outages, natural disasters, and potential war scenarios, providing 72-hour preparedness strategies.
- It will include practical advice on first aid, fire prevention, evacuation supplies, and pet care, and will be available in multiple languages, including Ukrainian, to serve diverse communities.
- The initiative aligns with broader Polish efforts to bolster national security, including expanding military training for civilians and strengthening its eastern border under the 'East Shield' program.
- Poland's government has drawn inspiration from similar guides in 23 countries, emphasizing readiness for both civilian and military emergencies as tensions with Russia remain high.
