Report from Ad hoc Committee on the Implementation of the IAI Tripartite Governance

The Ad hoc Committee reports that the Montevideo office is operational and the Buenos Aires Science-Policy liaison office has hired a director, though some host country commitments in Argentina remain under development. In Brazil, the revised host country agreement for the Science Development Directorate faces challenges regarding Brazilian law on privileges and immunities for staff, which may hinder IAI operations compared to its presence in Uruguay and Argentina.

• The IAI's operational presence in Uruguay and Argentina is progressing, with the Montevideo office fully operational and the Buenos Aires Science-Policy liaison office having appointed a director as of May 2015.
• The establishment of the office in Argentina has seen progress, although some commitments from the host country agreement are still being developed following a change in government.
• The IAI faces governance challenges in Brazil because Brazilian laws regarding privileges and immunities for international organization staff may prevent the IAI from operating with the same flexibility it has in Uruguay and Argentina.
