Summary
This briefing document is an action list from the Fifteenth Meeting of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) Executive Council (EC), held on June 25-26, 2002, in Sao José dos Campos, Brazil. It details administrative decisions regarding the election of Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) members, budget approvals, the management of working groups, and funding for the Small Grants Program.
Key insights
- The US delegation increased its financial contribution to the IAI Small Grants Program from U$S 300,000 to U$S 340,000.
- The Executive Council approved 16 projects ranked "good" or higher for funding through the Small Grants Program (SGP). The total funding required for these projects is U$S 385,000, meaning the IAI Directorate must find U$S 40,000 from non-US sources to fully fund them.
- The Executive Council decided to close IAI nodes in Costa Rica and Uruguay, while maintaining the node located in Brazil.
- The Executive Council rejected a proposal from the FA WG to forgive outstanding balances from prior years for Parties in arrears who paid for the 2000/2001, 2001/2002, and 2002/2003 fiscal years by June 30, 2003. Following a recommendation from Argentina, the decision was postponed for further study and discussion with the future Director.
- The Executive Council approved the IAI Core Budget Request for the 2002/2003 fiscal year and the IAI Financial Statements for 2000/2001, both of which were to be forwarded to the Conference of Parties (CoP).
