Sažetak
Since joining the European Union, Croatia has experienced significant levels of emigration, particularly of people of prime working age, with official statistics significantly underestimating the extent of emigration. Combined with falling birth rates, emigration contributes to overall population decline, shortages of key skills, and an ageing population. Although demographic trends have been a cause of political concern, there have been few policy initiatives. The Government of Croatia could do more to promote circular migration, investing in those professions and geographical areas where propensity to migrate is highest.
