		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;The Croatian Higher Education Funding System in a European Context: A Comparative Study&#8221; (2012) Authors: Karin Doolan, Danijela Dolenec, Mladen Domazet Published: November 2012 (Croatian), December 2012 (English)  The aim of the study is to provide a basis for discussing reforms of the Croatian higher education funding system based on data and practices in other European countries. The study collected data on the Croatian higher education funding system, as well as on systems of five other European countries. The data collected was analysed to identify common trends and practices among all countries, and to identify significant differences in approaching higher education funding policies. The first section of the report provides a comparative perspective on aspects of higher education funding at the national level in Austria, Croatia, Hungary, Germany, Slovenia and Sweden. The second section takes an institution-level comparative approach, with the primary focus being on the funding of Croatian higher education institutions, and how institutional practices differ within Croatia.
