Croatian public policy think tank Centre for Public Policy and Economic Analysis (CEA) strongly advocates individual liberty, open markets, policy improvements, EU & NATO enlargement, as well as transatlantic and global security alliance of democratic countries.
Policy analysis and research

Moreover, CEA provides policy analysis for portals Ekonomski Lab, Pametni gradovi, Talas.hr, 4 Liberty.eu, Atlas Network, and ex-Banka.hr.
