Institution-Specific Annex 2023 Document 02

The Institution-Specific Annex 2023 Document 02 outlines the funding guidelines and eligibility criteria for the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) within the Belmont Forum/NSF – CRA CEH2 call. It specifies financial support for research projects in selected Latin American and Caribbean countries, emphasizing co-funding and transdisciplinary science.

• The IAI provides financial resources for up to 5 research projects, with individual project funding ranging from $100,000 to $300,000 USD. The maximum budget request is determined by the number of eligible countries in the consortium: $100,000 USD for one country, $200,000 USD for two countries, and up to $300,000 USD for three or more eligible countries.
• Research projects are supported for a duration of up to 3 years, with the possibility of applying for a 1-year no-cost extension.
• Eligible participants include colleges, universities, professional societies, not-for-profit organizations, or governmental institutions with formal research programs. The IAI encourages early and mid-career scholars to take key roles, such as Lead PI and Co-PI, and is open to scientists from the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences, as well as stakeholders.
• Funding is restricted to project-related costs such as research, data management, travel, workshops, capacity building, communication, and scholarships. Equipment and software expenditures are limited to 10% of the total budget, and accountable administrative expenses are capped at 7%. Overhead is not allowed, and funds generally cannot be used to replace or supplement investigator salaries.
• Co-funding is a key requirement for grant consideration and can be provided as financial or in-kind contributions (such as salaries, scholarships, or access to equipment). The IAI expects higher levels of co-funding from upper and upper middle-income countries.
