This report offers an in-depth analysis of the policy measures and programmes to enhance social enterprise and social entrepreneurship development in the Republic of Croatia. It is the result of in-depth research by an Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) team into social enterprise at local, national and international levels, drawing on policy expertise, international and national case studies, legislation and economic data. During a study visit to Croatia in October 2014 the OECD team met a number of important stakeholders to obtain detailed information and to discuss the most important elements of Croatia’s current and desired future social enterprise environment. The report is intended to be an encapsulating study, briefly outlining Croatia’s social enterprise history, providing an analysis of the current social economy landscape and issues, and making policy recommendations for the future.
