Croatian Syrmian Initiative (Croatian: Hrvatska srijemska inicijativa, abbreviation: HSI) is a political party of ethnic Croats from eastern Syrmia region in the autonomous province of Vojvodina and the Republic of Serbia.

It was founded in February 5, 2008. The current president is Ante Španović. Party seat is in Sremska Mitrovica.

Unlike other Croat parties from Vojvodina, HSI had good relations with Democratic Alliance of Croats in Vojvodina. In 2009 HSI negotiated with DSHV. It was planned that HSI and DSHV unite on June 5, 2009 on the meeting in Sremska Mitrovica.[1]

On the local elections in Serbia in 2008, Croatian Syrmian Initiative had one member on the election list of Democratic Party, winning one mandate in Sremska Mitrovica.
