The campaign, conducted under the mottos "Where there is room for everyone" and "Croatia is the home of all its citizens", is aimed at raising public awareness of sustainable coexistence, Croatia's Ambassador to Bosnia-Herzegovina, Josip Vrbosic, said at a news conference.
According to data from the Department for Displaced People, Returnees and Refugees at the Croatian Transport and Development Ministry, only one percent of 19,289 housing units have still not been returned to their pre-war owners.
A representative of the Ministry, Ana Marija Radic, said that around 119,000 Serb citizens had returned to Croatia to date.
"In Croatia 137,337 destroyed and damaged houses and flats have been reconstructed so far, which has cost close to 7.5 billion euros. In 2005, 8,600 houses and flats were reconstructed, which cost more than 75 million euros of budgetary funds. There is around 5,700 reconstruction cases which still need to be completed and most of them will be dealt with by the end of the year," Radic said.
Reporters were also told that returnees to Croatia were granted allowances for a period of six months after their return.
According to official figures, 6,952 refugees have returned to Croatia in 2005.
