With knowledge and new ideas, we are well prepared for crises.

Power outages, floods, or emergencies at home: Crises and disasters can occur on both large and small scales, and they can’t always be prevented. Still, we’re not helpless. By thinking ahead, we can plan our response and make the necessary preparations.

Visitors explore the exhibition's interactive stations in a light-filled hall.

This exhibition about civil security features a variety of interactive stations.

Can you keep your cool in difficult situations? What skills do you already have that could help in an emergency? Try out how you would act in a dangerous situation. You’ll also discover how rescue and emergency services use modern technology to improve their operations and protect people and communities.
