Globalisation and diversity has increased the presence of different languages in Swedish municipalities. As the local administrative authorities with responsibility for the public crisis management, how are these municipalities coping with crisis communication recipients that are not speaking Swedish?

Municipalities that do adapt their crisis communication have drawn lessons from local incidents that complements this discourse.
