Message from the President

Istria's past is unrepeatable and magnificent. Today, it is the only Croatian Region witnessing significant positive trends in almost all areas of life.

However, Istria currently also faces numerous challenges that can be solved to our mutual benefit only with common efforts of all of us living in Istria. Nobody can decide anything on his/her own, and nobody has the right to decide individually of our shared destiny. For this reason, I invite everyone who wants to help us with his/her knowledge, experience, courage, and visions.

Let us use these pages for communication resulting in our common creation of our future.

Istria is today a recognised and renowned European region, and it has a clear perspective.

Competitive economy, vigorous science, creative culture, and constant environmental protection are only a few of the objectives we are already realising.

Istria can solve the problems it is currently facing by the end of this decade at the latest.

For this reason, let us collaborate and succeed together.

President of the Istrian Region

Ivan Jakovčić
