Varaždin to host Walk for Life march on October 3

A Walk for Life, Family, and Croatia is scheduled to take place in Varaždin on Saturday, October 3, 2026. The event is part of a larger movement involving marches in 19 different Croatian cities to advocate for the fundamental human right to life.

Organizers and local coordinator Mišo Džeko are calling for legislative changes, specifically targeting the current abortion laws in Croatia, which they state date back to 1978 under a former totalitarian regime. The movement seeks to implement laws that provide absolute legal protection for the unborn and offer greater social support and security for mothers facing difficult decisions.
