The document outlines the process for renewing or filling memberships for the IAI's Science Advisory Committee (SAC) and Science Policy Advisory Committee (SPAC) ahead of the 33rd meeting of the Conference of the Parties (CoP-33) in May 2025. It recommends the renewal of specific members based on their contributions and specifies the scientific and professional criteria required for new nominees, with a particular emphasis on addressing the underrepresentation of Central America and the Caribbean.

• The Science Advisory Committee (SAC) recommends the renewal of terms for Alexandra Mallett and Barry Warner, suggesting Dr. Mallett be appointed as a full member for her new term. Three SAC members' terms expire in May 2025: Alexandra Mallett, Barry Warner, and Jeniffer Silva.
• The Science Policy Advisory Committee (SPAC) recommends the renewal of Margot Hurlbert, as well as Carol Franco and Amparo Martínez Arroyo. Terms for Hurlbert and Nathalie Flores expire in May 2025, while the terms for Franco and Martínez Arroyo (the current Chair) also expire and were proposed for renewal by the SPAC itself.
• Both the SAC and SPAC identify a current underrepresentation of Central America and the Caribbean in their compositions and aim to address this through the nomination process, in alignment with the IAI's policy on Gender, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.
• Specific expertise gaps are identified for both committees: the Natural Sciences require a specialist in Terrestrial Ecosystems, and the Social Sciences require expertise in Economics or Development Studies.
• Nominations or renominations must be submitted with a brief curriculum vitae to the IAI Directorate by 28 April 2025. Elections are scheduled for the second day of the 33rd meeting of the Conference of the Parties (CoP-33) in Asunción, Paraguay, on 29-30 May 2025.
