The starting point for examining Poles’ attitudes towards new technologies was to identify the most important problems they believe Poland faces. A list of 39 challenges was compiled on the basis of the goals contained in Agenda 2030. In the top ten issues, as many as three relate to climate action and clean and green energy. An ageing population and limited access to healthcare have invariably been identified as the most significant problems for four years. The number of people who believe that the level of education in Polish schools is too low has increased by 16 % compared to last year. However, as many as 93 % of respondents mention overpricing as the main challenge, according to the report.<\/p>\n
80 % of respondents say that new technologies can help solve these problems, and 95 % believe that the state should support their development. The number of Poles who say digital skills improve their chances in the labour market has also risen to 95%. The most popular technological solutions included those that enable recycled production (90 %), as well as solar panels (89 %) and electric cars (83 %). The largest increase in acceptance towards technology was seen for nuclear power.<\/p>\n
As the authors of the survey state, opinions on new technologies divide Poles into three groups: open-minded, distanced and cautious. 63 % have a positive attitude towards digitalisation (6% more than in 2021). Among them are mainly young urban residents, equally men and women. 27 % are distanced and 10 % are cautious.<\/p>\n
