REGLAMENTO DE LA CONFERENCIA DE LAS PARTES DEL INSTITUTO INTERAMERICANO PARA LA INVESTIGACIÓN DEL CAMBIO GLOBAL
Summary
The 'Reglamento de la Conferencia de las Partes del Instituto Interamericano para la Investigación del Cambio Global' is a guide establishing the operational rules and procedures for the Conference of the Parties (CoP) of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI). It details the protocols for participant accreditation, the organization of ordinary and extraordinary meetings, agenda setting, voting mechanisms, and the election or removal of the Executive Director and members of the Scientific Advisory Committee.
Key insights
- The Conference of the Parties (CoP) holds an ordinary meeting annually, typically in June, with the venue selected based on offers from member Parties and guided by principles of rotation and geographic distribution.
- Extraordinary Meetings may be convened upon the request of one or more Parties, provided they receive affirmative votes from two-thirds or more of the Parties. These meetings are restricted to the specific topics that motivated their call.
- The Executive Director is responsible for preparing the provisional agenda for ordinary meetings in consultation with the Executive Council's Steering Committee, making it available to participants at least 30 days before the meeting starts.
- Plenary sessions require a quorum consisting of half of the accredited or designated representatives of the IAI's active Parties. A Party is deemed inactive if it has not participated in any of the three previous CoPs nor designated a Permanent Representative during that three-year period.
- Voting for the election or removal of the Executive Director, as well as the election of members for the Executive Council and the Scientific Advisory Committee, must be conducted via secret ballot.
- The Conference of the Parties has the exclusive authority to remove the Executive Director through a secret vote requiring a two-thirds majority of the Parties.
- The Scientific Advisory Committee is composed of members elected by the CoP, with a focus on ensuring equitable geographic distribution and representation across various disciplines related to global change research.
