Croatian public policy think tank Centre for Public Policy and Economic Analysis (CEA) strongly advocates individual liberty, free market reforms, EU & NATO enlargement, as well as transatlantic and global security alliance of democratic countries. Accordingly, CEA stands for the global order based on advancing freedom and democracy, against the growing authoritarian influence.

Policy analysis and research

In order to advocate fact based policies, CEA is gathering information to design policy analysis and multidisciplinary research in the areas of economic policy, public management, global security and geopolitics. Moreover, CEA provides policy analysis for portals Ekonomski Lab, Pametni gradovi, Talas.hr, 4 Liberty.eu, Atlas Network, and ex-Banka.hr.

Key projects

CEA’s strategic projects are Croatia 2025 and Detektor – Croatia 2025 provides concrete and measurable public management and economic reform solutions for a more competitive Croatia, while Detektor provides open-source intelligence of populist disinformation as geopolitical risk for Croatia and transatlantic institutions (EU & NATO).
