Informe del Grupo de Trabajo Financiero
Summary
This report from the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) details the activities and recommendations of the Financial Working Group. The group was tasked with developing a plan to increase voluntary contributions to the IAI's operating budget and define other forms of financial and in-kind support to ensure financial stability amidst inflation and growth in activities.
Key insights
- The Financial Working Group identified a need for greater financial stability and security because voluntary contributions from Parties have not been adjusted for inflation in recent years, and some Parties have ceased contributing for several years.
- The Working Group recommends a phased increase in voluntary contributions from Parties, starting with a 20% increase for the 2024-2025 fiscal year, followed by an annual increase of 5% for subsequent years.
- To address non-payment, the group recommends discarding voluntary financial contributions to the core budget that have not been submitted since before 2019. For those who have not contributed between 2019 and 2024, the group suggests allowing in-kind contributions, such as staff secondments or the organization of scientific and training workshops.
- The IAI Executive Directorate is recommended to send annual letters to focal points after each Conference of the Parties (CoP) specifying the voluntary contribution amount for the current fiscal year, accompanied by a country profile summarizing the benefits and opportunities the member country has received from the IAI.
