Summary
The IAI report covers its progress in transdisciplinary research, the implementation of the Third Cooperative Research Networks (CRN3) program, and the development of professional seminars to bridge the gap between science and policy in the Americas. Key achievements include the launch of a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) on climate change impacts in Latin America and the establishment of a science-policy liaison office in Buenos Aires to systematize the impact of IAI research on regional governance.
Key insights
- The IAI's Seed Grant Program (TISG), running from November 2011 to March 2016, successfully fostered 11 interdisciplinary networks involving 68 professionals from 53 institutions across 15 countries, spending $687,000 of an $820,000 original grant.
