How do Poles assess the risk of crises and disasters? Do they have supplies, an action plan, and an evacuation backpack ready? Who do they trust when they need information about safety? The study "Preparing Polish Society for Disasters and Catastrophes," commissioned by the Polish Red Cross and conducted by Zymetria, provides answers to these questions.

Most Poles believe they could cope for a few days in a crisis situation. However, data reveal a clear discrepancy between these claims and actual preparedness levels. KATAKIT®—an emergency backpack designed for the first 72 hours of a crisis—offers a solution to this gap.

The discussion panel of the Polish Red Cross, three other panels with the participation of our specialists, hundreds of conversations at the booth and behind the scenes, a presentation of the evacuation backpack, and Red Cross courses and trainings – the Economic Forum in Karpacz is behind us.
