The Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung organized on June 3rd, 2020 in Zagreb a discussion with the Minister of Public Administration Ivan Malenica and the President of the Croatian County Association Goran Pauk about the importance of territorial organization and efficient public administration, which is primarily achieved through transparency and decentralization. An unavoidable topic was the current coronavirus pandemic, which caused health and economic problems, but also led to the accelerated digitalization of the society.
