Dear Colleagues,
please let me introduce you the new format of the Czech Healthy Cities Newsletter which brings you monthly short news and highligts, this time covering mainly the period of February 2011. You will find here interesting info from Czech Healthy Cities and their association - our activities, projects and also upcoming events.
(NOTE: Some of the website links are available only in Czech, in that case you can use the Google Translate toolbar, which can be found on the left side of the HCCZ web page.)
I believe that this new HCCZ Newsletter will be for you an interesting and useful source of information and inspiration from Czech Healthy Cities, Municipalities and Regions.
