# Disaster go-bag checklist

**What goes in a disaster go-bag?**

A disaster go-bag holds a waterproof bag, important documents in a waterproof folder, drinking water and long-life food, a first-aid kit and personal medicines, a torch, whistle and radio, a phone and power bank, a change of clothes, and emergency numbers written on paper. Tick the items you have ready; your ticks are saved only in this browser. Also keep digital copies of your documents, for example through IKD.

## Where this list comes from

This list summarises go-bag contents from BPBD guidance citing BNPB, as explained in our disaster preparedness guide.

Your ticks are saved only in this device’s browser and are not sent anywhere. The page still works if browser storage is blocked.

## Calculator limits

- Adapt the bag to your family, for example supplies for babies, older people or people with disabilities.
- Ticks are not saved in private browsing or after clearing browser data.
