This briefing, drafted by Brazil for the 26th meeting of the Conference of the Parties of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) in June 2018, proposes that the Brazilian Global Climate Change Research Network (Rede Clima) be invited to become an Associate of the IAI.

• Brazil proposes that the Brazilian Global Climate Change Research Network (Rede Clima) be admitted as an Associate of the IAI under Article XI of the Agreement, which allows the Conference of the Parties to invite external states, intergovernmental organizations, industries, and non-governmental or private organizations to support the Institute's Scientific Agenda.
• Rede Clima supports the development of Brazil's National Climate Change Plan, provides scientific advice to Brazilian delegations in international environmental and climate negotiations, and contributes to IPCC assessment reports and national greenhouse gas emission inventories.
• The proposed cooperation between the IAI and Rede Clima would focus on establishing partnerships for global change research, promoting science-policy dialogue for decision-making, strengthening links between regional scientists and institutions, and facilitating researcher exchanges and capacity-building activities.
• Prior to this proposal, the Conference of the Parties had invited three organizations to associate with the IAI: the Center for International Earth Science Information Network (CIESIN), the Tropical Water Center for Latin America and the Caribbean (CATHALAC), and the Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP).
