Vesna Bedeković (born 22 February 1966) is a Croatian pedagog and politician who served as the Minister of Demographics, Family, Youth and Social Policy from July 2019 to July 2020 in the cabinet of Andrej Plenković.
She graduated from the Faculty of Pedagogy at the University of Josip Juraj Strossmayer in Osijek, and from the Department of Pedagogy at the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Zagreb.
Bedeković is a member of the Croatian Pedagogical Society and International Association for Intercultural Education (IAIE) and has worked, inter alia, on scientific projects linking interculturality and minority language education and access to Roma integration as well as the development of creativity in lifelong education of teachers.
From 14 October 2016 to 19 July 2019, Bedeković was a member of the Croatian Parliament, replacing former Minister of Agriculture Tomislav Tolušić on the spot of deputy MP and thus entered the Croatian legislative body even though she won only 0.83 percent of the votes in the elections, convincingly least at HDZ list.
In the Parliament, she was a member of the Gender Equality Committee, and after Andro Krstulović Opara took the mayor's office in Split, she took over the chairmanship of the Parliamentary Committee on Education, Science and Culture.
