Purpose: Evaluation of the experience and operational preparedness of Polish entities involved in humanitarian aid.

Design/methodology/approach: The research was carried out using a diagnostic survey method, with PAPI (paper and pencil interview) and CAPI (computer-assisted personal interview) survey techniques. The survey included organizations involved in humanitarian relief activities, represented by individuals working in managerial positions with long years of work experience.

Findings: The organizations surveyed do not have significant experience in organizing and implementing humanitarian activities, but among them many have participated in international humanitarian operations. The organizations provide a positive assessment of their stock strategies and the resources required to secure the distribution process during humanitarian aid.

Originality/value: The results of research can be addressed to those involved in public crisis management, both local authorities and public entities as well as blue light organizations and non-governmental organizations.(original abstract)
