The New Croatian Initiative (Croatian: Nova hrvatska inicijativa or NHI) was a Bosnian Croat political party in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was founded by Krešimir Zubak in 1998, after he left the Croatian Democratic Union. The party was dissolved in 2007.
The New Croatian Initiative was founded by former Bosnian Presidency member Krešimir Zubak on 24 June 1998, who had previously left the Croatian Democratic Union (HDZ BiH).[1] The party consisted mainly of liberals, the majority of whom were dissidents from the HDZ BiH.[2] Zubak believed that its leaders didn't care about the interests of Croats in Central Bosnia.
After several months of negotiations, on 1 October 2007, the party was merged into the Croatian Peasant Party.[2]
