Summary
The document provides guidance for the nomination and re-nomination of members to the IAI's Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) and Science and Policy Advisory Committee (SPAC). It recommends the renewal of mandates for several current members and specifies criteria for new candidates, emphasizing scientific excellence, international recognition in the Americas, and a need for better representation from Central America and the Caribbean. Nominations are due by April 28, 2025, with elections scheduled for May 29-30, 2025, during CoP-33 in Asunción, Paraguay.
Key insights
- The Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) recommends the renewal of mandates for Alexandra Mallett and Barry Warner, suggesting Mallett be appointed as a full member for her new term.
- The Science and Policy Advisory Committee (SPAC) recommends the renewal of mandates for Margot Hurlbert, Carol Franco, and Amparo Martínez Arroyo.
- Both the SAC and SPAC identify a current underrepresentation of Central America and the Caribbean in their compositions and aim to address this through new nominations.
- Candidates for both committees must possess high academic and research excellence, a PhD or equivalent, and international recognition for scientific work in the Americas. Specific needs include scientists specializing in terrestrial ecosystems for natural sciences and those with experience in economics or development studies for social sciences.
- The deadline for submitting nominations or re-nominations, including a brief CV, is April 28, 2025, with elections to be held on the second day of CoP-33 in Asunción, Paraguay, on May 29-30, 2025.
