Evidence snapshot for Croatia
Croatia has undertaken several large-scale digital transformation initiatives: the e-Schools programme connected all 1,321 Croatian schools, delivered over 110,000 laptops, and trained ~70,000 people, achieving a confirmed 10% digital-maturity boost, while BrAIn piloted an AI curriculum across 53 vocational schools, reaching 68 teachers and 1,018 students, with over 90% of teachers planning to continue in 2025/26. However, accessibility audits revealed significant gaps: no public-sector website fully met 50% of all tracked accessibility requirements, with average compliance ranging from 86% in health to 31% in transport. These efforts demonstrate simultaneous progress in digital education and infrastructure while exposing persistent challenges in ensuring inclusive digital access across public services.
