Rules and Procedures of the Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee

The document outlines the composition, meeting frequency, and leadership structure of the IAI's EDI Committee, specifying its mandate to monitor the Gender, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Policy and establish an Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities Advisory Committee.

• The EDI Committee is composed of members from the Science and Policy Advisory Committee (SPAC), the Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC), and nominated focal points, with additional nominations possible from the IAI Directorate and the Science, Technology, and Policy Fellowship Program (STeP).
• The committee must maintain a minimum of three members, though there is no maximum limit on membership size.
• The EDI Committee is mandated to update, monitor, and guide the implementation of the Gender, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Policy for IAI Scientific Projects and Capacity Development Activities, reporting progress at each Conference of the Parties meeting.
• The EDI Committee is responsible for creating an Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities Advisory Committee (IP&LC-AC) to provide recommendations on the IAI's annual program, Strategic Plan, and Scientific Agenda.
• Governance is managed by a Chair or Co-Chairs elected every two years, with a quorum requiring the leadership and at least two members; recommendations are ideally reached by consensus or a two-third voting majority.
