All Analysis

Croatia's Leading Platform for International Affairs Research

Foreign Policy Forum (FPF) is an independent, non-partisan think-tank based in Zagreb, founded by faculty and alumni of the Faculty of Political Science (FPZG). We produce rigorous research and facilitate substantive public debate on Croatia's foreign policy, European integration, and regional security challenges.

Operating at the intersection of academic inquiry and practical policy, FPF bridges the gap between scholarly analysis and the real-world demands of policymakers, diplomats, and civil society actors across Southeast Europe.

  • Independent Research — peer-reviewed publications, policy briefs, and working papers on regional and European foreign policy
  • Public Engagement — open conferences, public lectures, and expert commentary for media and civil society
  • Policy Dialogue — bringing academics, diplomats, and government officials together around concrete questions of national and regional interest
