" The aim of the project is to improve the quality of life of Croatian veterans and victims of the Homeland War by conducting scientific research on the basis of which guidelines will be created for the improvement of legal provisions governing the rights of veterans.. We hereby invite all citizens to fill out an anonymous online survey that will be the basis for conducting six scientific studies., the topics of these tests have been determined in advance through prior consultation with relevant experts and will be conducted on an adequate number of samples., and they concern:
1) Public opinion about veterans and the image created in the media;
2) Health care for veterans;
3) Veterans' work activity and involvement in social entrepreneurship;
4) War tourism in the Republic of Croatia;
5) Psychosocial status of veterans' families;
6) Veterans' communication with decision makers;

The obtained data will be processed by statistical analyzes within professional and scientific research, which will result in exact indicators and conclusions in the development of guidelines for policy development.. Engaged professors from three scientific organizations will participate in the research (Ivo Pilar Institute of Social Sciences, University of Zadar, Croatian Catholic University) who will present their work in scientific articles and guidelines for drafting guidelines. The developed guidelines will be presented to decision makers during six structured dialogues, and each of them will be organized in a different city in order to achieve regional equality of involvement in the policy-making process.
