Sweden, Finland and Norway are reinforcing the preparedness of their populations for extreme scenarios, training citizens to survive without access to electricity, water or food. The countries of northern Europe are preparing for unknown threats that may never happen.
The governments of these three countries consider that the consequences of not being prepared would be too severe to allow for improvisation. Therefore, they are investing in training the population for emergency situations.
This preparedness aims to ensure that citizens can face severe adverse scenarios, even if those scenarios are considered unlikely. The objective is to ensure that society is protected against threats whose impacts would be devastating.
