Informe de la Presidente del Consejo Ejecutivo

This report from the President of the Executive Council (EC) of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) details decisions made during the EC's 38th Meeting following recommendations from the 22nd Conference of the Parties (CoP) held in Mexico City. Key actions include the creation of a declaration on climate adaptation for COP-20, the development of the Science and Policy Advisory Committee (SPAC), and the adoption of Research Gate for scientific networking.

• The Executive Council established a commission consisting of Brazil, Mexico, Peru, and the President of the Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) to draft a declaration for COP-20-UNFCCC. This declaration, presented by Uruguay on behalf of the IAI, emphasizes that adaptation is a significant issue in Latin America and advocates for decision-making based on consistent science and technology.
• The Executive Council defined guidelines for the first composition of the Science and Policy Advisory Committee (SPAC), including initial appointments for nine members with durations of 1 to 3 years to ensure a staggered replacement process and future continuity. The SPAC has since held four teleconferences and developed guidelines for the CoP, with Canada providing a draft of its nomination process.
• The Executive Council approved the use of Research Gate to connect IAI scientists, although the report notes that progress on this initiative has been limited in recent months.
• The CoP renewed the Commission for the Implementation of the IAI Tripartite Structure until the next CoP. This commission is chaired by the USA and vice-chaired by Ecuador, with members including Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica, and Uruguay.
