Civilt försvar

Civil defence (civilt försvar) is society's ability to protect the civilian population and keep important functions running during crisis and war. The responsibility is shared: municipalities and regions handle local and regional tasks, while the central government holds the whole together. As a citizen you encounter it in the form of preparedness for water, healthcare, warmth, and information when everyday life is thrown out of order.
