World Carfree Network AGM 2009
Saturday 7 November 2009 - Prague, Czech Republic
Online discussions ongoing
For the first time we will have an online discussion forum to enable more members to get involved in our decision making. As part of our drive (excuse the pun) to make it easier for you to participate, we will be using an online forum to discuss four topics on the AGM agenda. Individual Members and representatives of Member Orgs can register for this and find instructions at http://agm2009.50.forumer.com/index.php.
By doing this, we avoid bombarding you with e-mails and you can make comments at any time. All will become clear once you have registered - this is new for us, so please be patient if there are technological or other glitches along the way. Please register (with your real & whole name in order to maintain a safe, simple and friendly working environment) on the AGM 2009 forum now.
