Project observer from Croatia:

Croatian Association of Primary School Principals (HUROŠ)

Logo Croatian Association of Primary School PrincipalsThe Croatian Association of Primary School Principals (HUROŠ) supports cooperation between primary school principals and their joint work on solving problems distinctive for this type of educational centers. The Association was established on the 10th of February 1995 and currently has 772 members. The goals of the Association include:

  • improvement of basic education in the Republic of Croatia,
  • cooperation with government, local authorities and administration,
  • participation in drafting relevant laws,
  • protecting the interests of the Association and its members,
  • international cooperation with schools, associations and institutions,
  • organization of seminars and conferences,
  • cooperation with the media.

The Association decided to become an observer of the EURONET 50/50 MAX project as - being deeply involved in the problems of schooling and education of children - it recognized its educational value for this and for future generations. As HUROŠ is a strong association, which works with nearly all primary schools in Croatia, it has been recognized as a good partner for the dissemination of project ideas and goals. Children are the best advocates for the concepts included in the project and they are the ones, who will one day become the new leaders. It is therefore important to include them and educate them on the need to save energy from a very early age.
