Sažetak
Due to the growing social consciousness and public pressure as well as legislation, all organizations especially organizations in the business sector are challenged to base its existence and development on the principles of sustainable development. Organizations that actively participate in resolving the environmental, social and ethical issues are considered to be socially responsible. Basic areas of consideration in socially responsible organization are environmental protection and welfare of employees, as well as welfare of local communities and society as a whole. Higher education institutions have always been change agents, therefore, it is of great importance that they are role models for socially responsible behaviour. Basic hypothesis of this paper is that the majority of universities in Croatia do not systematically develop socially responsible practices. Therefore, this paper deals with the concept of social responsibility. The aim of this paper is to explore strategic documents of Croatian universities in order to determine commitment to social responsibility
