Changed lines 785-793 from:

We discussed this question at length and no SC members were in favor of adopting strict rules about excluding members based on their funding sources. Instead, we were in favor of the WCN composing a "Best Practices Guide" to support member organisations when they are faced with the decision of whether to accept auto-industry money. We suggest that the AGM continue to consider applications from member organisations on a case by case basis.

A media working group was formed in Budapest. For now it is focused on the project of support for the human rights of New York City cyclists who are being arrested at the monthly Critical Mass rides, but it will also coordinate press outreach for World Carfree Day, etc. Arie Farnam is looking at funding sources for a “Mobility Justice Project” which could expand from our successful Dhaka intervention and enable World Carfree Network to serve as a sort of Amnesty International of transportation injustice worldwide.
