IIEC established an ongoing cooperative relationship with the City of Xiamen, China. Activities included: Conducted four workshops over the 2-year period of the project, three of which utilized supplemental funding from the US EPA. The workshops focused on bringing sustainable transportation concepts to the Xiamen government's municipal staff.
