It has been along time in gestation, and we posted the text version of this a while ago, but we are delighted to present, in pdf. format, Version 1.0 of the Transition Network’s ‘Who We Are and What We Do’ document, lovingly designed by the good folks at MooreBlackett. It was produced through several rounds of public meetings, the online forum, and with the input of many of you.

The first day of the Transition Cities Conference in Nottingham was a fascinating coming together of nearly 150 people from across the UK (as well as Sydney, Melbourne, Paris and Gent in Belgium), all hosted in the Nottingham Arena, supported by Nottingham City Council.
