CORE BUDGET REQUEST FOR FISCAL YEAR 2017/2018 and PRELIMINARY REQUEST 2018-2020

The Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) presents its core budget request for the 2017/2018 fiscal year and preliminary projections for 2018-2020. The document outlines the financial requirements to maintain the Directorate's operations, including scientific program monitoring, UN convention participation, and administrative transitions to Montevideo.

• The proposed core budget for the 2017/2018 fiscal year is US$1,420,000, which is a slight increase of US$3,884 over the 2016/2017 budget of US$1,416,116.
• Salaries and Benefits constitute the largest portion of the core budget, representing 68% of the total for 2017/2018, an increase from 66% in 2016/2017 and 67% in 2015-2016, partly due to severance and relocation costs for the Executive Director.
• The IAI is managing the CRN III program (2012-2018), which has entered its fifth year; due to challenges with 'credible interdisciplinarity', the institute has redesigned funding flows for 16/17 and implemented a no-cost extension beyond 2017.
• The Directorate maintains active engagement with international bodies, including observer status at the UNFCCC and the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), and participation in the High-Level Political Forum (HLPF) regarding the 2030 Agenda's Sustainable Development Goals.
• The IAI has shifted its communication strategy away from paper-based newsletters to digital platforms, including an enhanced website, YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.
• The IAI completed its final transition to Montevideo, resulting in the closure of its bank accounts and tax identifiers in Brazil.
• Preliminary budget projections for the following two years show an expected increase in total core budget needs, reaching US$1,522,108 for 2018/2019 and US$1,523,140 for 2019/2020.
