Abstract
This case study describes an initiative of community members in small village Crevarska strana in the municipality of Gvozd, an area of special state concern due to severe war damages in the nineties. A village was isolated from the nearest town Gvozd, and since inhabitants of the village do not have cars, they had to walk additional seven kilometers to the first bus station and get the bus to the town to work, school, administration offices. Joint community project initiated by local Citizens Advisory Council and supported by local authorities and international donors resolved the problem and a building action again connected village and city.
