SSweden Unveils Comprehensive Crisis and War-Survival Guide Amid Escalating Global Tensions



Sweden has released an updated guide to help its citizens prepare for various types of crisis situations or wartime, including armed conflicts, terrorism, cyberattacks, and extreme weather events. With NATO membership and increasing global tensions, this comprehensive guide is a crucial step towards securing the country's independence and democracy.

  • Sweeden has released an updated guide titled "If crisis or war comes" to prepare its citizens for crisis situations.
  • The guide provides detailed information on home survival tips, stockpiling essential items, and maintaining digital security during times of crisis.
  • Finland has also updated its wartime and crisis guidance document, which is now completely digitalized.
  • The guides reflect the growing concern about global security in recent years, particularly due to increased military threats from Russia.
  • The updated guides emphasize the importance of unity, cooperation, and resilience among citizens during crisis situations.



  • Sweden, a country that has recently joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), has taken significant steps to prepare its citizens for various types of crisis situations or wartime. The government has released an updated guide titled "If crisis or war comes" which was commissioned six years ago and has now been distributed to every Swedish household.

    This comprehensive guide provides residents with detailed information on how to prepare for, and act in case of, crisis or war scenarios such as armed conflicts, terrorism, cyberattacks, and extreme weather events. The 32-page document emphasizes the importance of unity and cooperation among citizens to secure the country's independence and democracy.

    The guide includes sections on home survival tips, stockpiling essential items, finding air raid shelters, and maintaining communication and digital security during times of crisis. It also advises residents on how to handle information safely and securely, both at home and at work.

    Furthermore, Sweden is not the only country in Scandinavia that has released an updated guide on crisis preparedness. Finland, which joined NATO last year following Russia's threat in 2021 to never allow either country to join the defense alliance, also updated its wartime and crisis guidance document recently. While both guides share similar content, Finland's completely digitalized version is hosted on the government's website, with no paper copies issued to residents.

    The increasing military threats, particularly from Russia, have prompted Sweden and Finland to take proactive measures to prepare their citizens for potential conflict. The fact that these countries are now part of NATO highlights the growing concern about global security in recent years.

    Another interesting aspect of this update is the inclusion of a section on psychological preparation and maintenance, reflecting modern society's increasing awareness of mental health and its importance during crisis situations. This emphasizes the need for resilience and unity among citizens to withstand the challenges that may arise from these types of crises.

    In addition to the Swedish guide, several other resources have been made available online, including webinars, whitepapers, and news articles on various aspects of cybersecurity, Russia, Sweden, and more. The availability of such comprehensive guides and resources underscores the growing importance of crisis preparedness in today's world.
