The average age of water pipes is more than 40 years, and the
 s
ystem suffers from maintenance backlogs. 
This poses a threat to water security due to high water losses, which undermine the financial sustainability 
of the system both in terms of increased cost of production and forgone revenues. 
Current efforts to plan for adaptation to climate change are insufficient.
Croatia is highly vulnerable 
to the impacts of climate change and has identified water resources (consumption and irrigation), coast and 
coastal zones, forestry and land use change, agriculture, biodiversity, and human health as its most vulner-
able sectors. The National Adaptation Strategy (NAS) covering the period until 2040 with a view to 2070 
and the National Action Plan (NAP) are being finalized and should be adopted in 2020. Climate adaptation 
actions are yet to be adequately embedded in sectoral strategies. Also, further development of national 
capabilities to monitor climate change and undertake research activities in this area is necessary.
The way forward
 
Croatia is in a good position to leapfrog on multiple fronts during the next decade. 
While the reform 
and investment agenda is substantial, macroeconomic and financial stability, solid economic growth, ac-
cess to EU funds and the prospect of joining the euro area and Schengen zone in the near future create new 
opportunities for Croatia.
 
The Croatian economy is now growing at around 3 percent annually, the labor 
market is improving, public debt is firmly on a downward path, and advancement has been achieved in 
critical areas such as the business environment and institutional quality. This has created an environment 
where the return on further reforms can be substantial, leading to stronger economic growth and faster 
convergence with the EU.
 
Economic growth, however, can only be sustainable if it translates into shared 
prosperity.
 
Equally important, while economic growth is an important prerequisite for improving welfare, 
it alone is not sufficient to achieve better quality of life. Living conditions, opportunities for individuals 
and families, equal access to education and health services, personal safety, national identity, etc., all 
strongly affect well-being.
