Functions of the EC Bureau

A briefing document from the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research outlining the proposed axes of work and specific functions of the Executive Council (EC) Bureau.

• The proposed work of the EC Bureau is organized around three central axes: scientific and technological policy (focused on research and capacity building), financial policy (covering budgets and fundraising), and institutional development (focused on the Directorate's management, structure, and visibility).
• The specific functions of the Bureau include raising considerations to the Executive Council regarding the three central axes, approving the Chair of the EC's report, and evaluating the performance of Working Groups.
• Implementation of these functions involves distributing the monitoring of the three axes among Bureau members based on their capabilities and interests, using a procedure that includes documentary analysis, consultations, and occasional visits.
