The document contains the minutes of the 22nd Conference of the Parties (CoP) of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI), held in Mexico City on August 13-14, 2014. The meeting focused on the implementation of a tripartite governance structure, the approval of the 2014-2015 annual plan and operating budget, and the establishment of a Science-Policy Liaison Advisory Committee (SPAC).

• The CoP approved the Operating Budget for the 2014-2015 fiscal year, which includes a 6% increase in the operating budget and a proposed 8.9% increase in country contributions compared to the previous year.
• The IAI is transitioning to a tripartite governance structure, with the main administrative office having moved to Montevideo, Uruguay, while offices in Argentina and Brazil are expected to become operational shortly.
• The CoP established the Science-Policy Liaison Advisory Committee (SPAC) to bridge the gap between scientific research and policy making, appointing nine members and three alternates.
• The IAI has been selected as the leading institution for the Latin American network of Future Earth, collaborating with funding agencies from Argentina (CONICET), Brazil (FAPESP), and Mexico (CONACYT).
• The CoP resolved to issue a statement to the UNFCCC CoP-20 in Peru emphasizing the importance of global change adaptation for Latin America and the role of science and technology in strengthening these measures.
• The IAI's 3rd Collaborative Research Network (CRN3) program emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach, integrating natural and social sciences to provide applicable information for decision-makers.
• FAPESP was accepted as an Associate Institution of the IAI, and the Executive Director was authorized to enter into the Partnership Agreement.
• The IAI's capacity-building mandate extends beyond doctoral students to include training for the political sector to interact with science, the scientific sector to interact with policy, and institutions to manage international programs.
