Abstract

The idea of forming a Press Council in Croatia goes back to 2004 when
serious discussions about the need of forming a Croatian Press Council, as a three-party
regulating body which would help fix the level of ethics in all media, began.
The text gives a chronological review of intensive activities that were
undertaken from 2004 to 2008. The activities, mostly financed by the German
Foundation Konrad Adenauer in corporation with the International Center for
Education for Journalists of Croatia within the framework of the Croatian Journalists’
Association, were led by Geza Stanić, at that time, Secretary of the Press Council of the
Croatian Helsinki Committee. The initiative finally received support in 2006 at the fortyseventh
assembly of the Croatian Journalists’ Association. However, instead of its
formation, the idea about the Press Council of Croatia has disappeared altogether.
