Croatia

The Croatian Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis Association (HUCUK) celebrated World IBD Day at the Flower Square in Zagreb on May 19th 2012. The HUCUK volunteers handed out leaflets and brochures to those interested, and also answered questions about inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and the work of the association.

The aim of this action was to raise public awareness on Crohn’s disease and Ulcerative Colitis in Croatia, and draw attention to the problems that an estimated number of four thousand to five thousand people in Croatia have.
