Abstract
The article comments on the draft of the Sustainable Development Strategy (SDS) of the Republic of Croatia and compares it with EU SDS and SD Strategies of Great Britain and Austria. There is significant potential for development in Croatian Strategy but there is also significant potential for improvement of the document. This is noted specifically in the absence of clear engagement of the central government for the implementation of the document, unclear guidance of the integration of the provisions of the document into Croatian legislation, insufficient engagement of the stakeholders in the development and implementation of the document, and unclear institutional responsibilities for implementation, financing options as well as measurement and evaluation of achievements.
