How does the Polish state utilize eCitizen?

In the era of growing geopolitical threats and dynamic digitalization of public services, Poland is consistently investing in tools for both national security and mass education of citizens. A key role in this strategy is played by the mObywatel application, which is already used by over 10 million Poles. It serves not only as a digital wallet for documents, but also increasingly as a platform for signing up for free military and civilian training. The digital revolution we observe in the Polish administration is also a real investment in the skills and preparedness of society to respond to crisis situations, cyber threats, and the need for mass mobilization. ### mObywatel as a pillar of Polish e-administration The mObywatel application is today one of the most recognizable and frequentl...

New base for the US Army in Poland One of the new points on the map will be the complex in Powidz. The main purpose of the facility will be the storage of ammunition and equipment for the US Army in the event of an open armed conflict.

The application will help in finding a shelter.

The difficult situation across the eastern border and the lack of widespread information regarding the location of shelters have become the driving force for the government to create the "Shelters" application.

Most of the indicated places will primarily meet the conditions qualifying them as temporary refuge places (TRP). By definition, shelters, in addition to providing protection against possible direct actions of conventional weapons, should be insulated from external factors such as radiation or chemical weapons. This means that, for example, they should have their own air filtration system inside the facility. The purpose of temporary refuge places is primari...
