Summary
The Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) submitted a basic budget request for the 2006/2007 fiscal year, seeking to maintain the same total funding level as the previous year at 1,012,405 USD. The request emphasizes the implementation of the CRN II program, the closure of CRN I, and the organization of four training institutes, while managing operational costs and addressing inflation and currency devaluation in Brazil.
Key insights
- The IAI's basic budget for the 2006/2007 fiscal year is requested at 1,012,405 USD, which is identical to the total requested for the 2005/2006 period.
- The basic budget funds the Executive Directorate and represents approximately 25% of the IAI's total budget, with the remaining 75% consisting of program funds.
- The Executive Directorate is implementing the CRN II program, which requires significantly more effort than previous programs to facilitate a "network of networks" and a balanced scientific portfolio. This includes 12 approved projects and additional "seed funds" projects to strengthen underrepresented areas such as urbanization and regional initiatives.
- The IAI is closing the CRN I program, which involved a research investment of approximately 25 million USD. Current efforts include synthesizing results and exploring the science-policy interface with the Scientific Committee on Problems of the Environment (SCOPE), resulting in a book to be published in 2006.
- The budget request includes the organization of four Training Institutes and the completion of the 2005 Seed Grant Program. Co-financing agreements have been established with organizations including the IDRC, the German Academic Exchange Service, and INPE-CPTEC.
- The IAI is requesting the maintenance of a 13% salary adjustment to partially compensate for a 27% decrease in the purchasing power of the US dollar caused by inflation and currency devaluation in Brazil.
- The Data and Information System (DIS) is being used to standardize scientific data across projects. The CRN II program was selected as an associated program for a new GIS-based information system.
