Marking a century and a half of organized water management in the Republic of Croatia is an opportunity to pay tribute to the rich tradition of the Croatian water management sector and reaffirm its exceptional role in the country’s development and the preservation of its identity.
Water management has always been inextricably linked to the survival and development of the Croatian people. This is evidenced by the establishment of the Society for the Regulation of the Vuka River on 7 September 1876, headed by Bishop Josip Juraj Strossmayer a great visionary, statesman and champion of progress. Ever since, the water management sector has proudly marked anniversaries of organized water management and reflected on its beginnings in Croatia, while continuing to promote a vision of responsible water management within a system that has evolved over the past century and a half thanks to the knowledge, dedication and expertise of many generations of engineers, experts and employees in the Croatian water management sector. Thanks to their work, the Croatian water management sector has become one of the key drivers of development in harmony with nature and the needs of society and has been recognized beyond the borders of the Republic of Croatia as an example of successful, sustainable and responsible management of one of the world’s most valuable natural resources water.
