Editorial

Dear members,

We have the pleasure this week to welcome our new colleague Stephanie Leonard who has recently completed a graduate traineeship at the Clean Transport and Sustainable Urban Mobility unit of the European Commission. Stephanie will be involved in the FP7 projects CIVITAS Capital, Solutions and MyWay. She holds a Masters degree in Political Science from the University of Glasgow.

This Autumn kicks off with a number of excellent networking and learning possibilities for all of us: September sees even two Polis Working Group meetings on Parking and Transport&Health as well as the European Mobility Week, to name just a few. Register online and check all events on the Polis website, now in easier calendar format!

To see all events and to read the full InfoPolis articles, do not forget to log in to the members area at www.polisnetwork.eu! When you are logged in as a member, you will have access to a considerably enhanced database of documents, events and news compared to the public website.

Yours sincerely,
