Among male respondents, 41% of those polled would participate, and among female respondents, the share of those willing was 10%.
The highest share of citizens willing to take part in military training is seen in the age group 18-29 (40%), and the lowest – in the 60+ group (29%).
The greatest readiness to participate in training is shown by citizens with higher education (43%), and the lowest – among those with primary education (27%).
The survey was conducted on March 17-21 among 1,000 adult Poles using computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI).
As reported earlier, the Polish government seeks to create conditions that would allow military training for 100,000 volunteers starting 2027.
