Informe de la 53ª reunión del Consejo Ejecutivo del IAI
Summary
The report details the proceedings of the 53rd meeting of the Executive Council (EC-53) of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI), held on June 14, 2022, in Montevideo and via videoconference. The meeting focused on financial approvals, the performance evaluation of the Executive Director, the recruitment process for a new Director, and progress on climate assessment initiatives in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Key insights
- The IAI's financial status for the 2021-22 fiscal year received an unqualified opinion from auditors, confirming that the financial statements accurately represented the organization's financial position in all material respects.
- Due to the socio-economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the IAI did not request increases in the Basic Budget or country contributions for the 2022-2023 fiscal year or the preliminary request for 2023-2025. However, the administration noted that this is unsustainable as the US dollar has lost 50% of its purchasing power since the Agreement entered into force in 1992.
- The Executive Council evaluated the performance of the IAI Executive Director for the 2021-2022 intersessional period, concluding that the Director had consistently exceeded performance expectations.
- The current Executive Director's second term ends on May 31, 2023, with no possibility of renewal. Consequently, the Executive Council approved a recommendation for the Conference of the Parties to initiate the recruitment process for a new Executive Director during the 2022-2023 intersessional period.
- The IAI is implementing an initiative to establish partnerships in the Americas to improve national capacities for conducting climate assessments, which support the development of national adaptation and mitigation strategies. This initiative was scheduled for presentation at the AmeriGEO Week 2022 in Asunción, Paraguay, from August 14 to 19, 2022.
