The Democratic Alliance of Croats in Vojvodina (Croatian: Demokratski savez Hrvata u Vojvodini, DSHV; Serbian Cyrillic: Демократски савез Хрвата у Војводини) is a political party in Serbia, representing the Croat ethnic minority in the province of Vojvodina.

History

Over time, some party members were unsatisfied with party's policy, so they separated and formed new Croat parties:

In 2009 DSHV negotiated with another ethnic Croat party from the Syrmia region of Vojvodina, the Hrvatska srijemska inicijativa / Hrvatska sremska inicijativa (Croatian Syrmian Initiative). It was planned that HSI and DSHV would unite on 5 June 2009 at a meeting in Sremska Mitrovica.

It has occasionally condemned attacks by Serbian nationalists, and it has issued protests over ethnic assimilation. It is also supportive of further autonomism.

List of presidents

  • Bela Tonković (1990–2003)
  • Petar Kuntić (2003–2015)
  • Tomislav Žigmanov (2015–present)
