The Croatian Public Relations Association (HUOJ) marked its 30th anniversary in Split, Croatia, from 5 to 7 November, under the theme of strategic communication and the evolving challenges facing the communications profession.
The anniversary was an opportunity to celebrate three decades of HUOJ’s contribution to the development and professional advancement of public relations in Croatia and the wider region. As an organisation with which IPRA established a cooperation agreement in 2021, HUOJ is an important partner in professional exchange and regional collaboration.
On behalf of IPRA, we extend our warmest congratulations to HUOJ, its leadership, members and the wider communications community on this important milestone, wishing the Association continued success in shaping the future of the profession.
IPRA was represented at the conference by Nataša Pavlović Bujas, IPRA President for 2024-2025, and Krešimir Macan, founder of Manjgura, one of Croatia’s leading public relations agencies. Both are members of the IPRA Alpe-Balkan-Adria (ABA) Chapter and took part in the panel discussion PR 2.0: A New Era of Public Relations addressing the changing expectations of the profession, the impact of new technologies and the growing importance of strategic, responsible and relationship-driven communication.
