Informe de la Dirección Ejecutiva Ciencia-Política

The report from the Executive Directorate of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) details activities and strategies to strengthen the science-policy interface. It focuses on providing scientific information to governments for policy-making, enhancing cooperation with multilateral environmental agreements, and increasing the visibility of the IAI among member and non-member states in the Americas.

• The IAI Executive Directorate is implementing a multifaceted approach to improve the provision of scientific information to governments, which includes leveraging existing cooperations, establishing links with multilateral environmental organizations, and engaging both member and non-member states.
• The IAI is working to increase the participation of scientists from the Americas in multilateral environmental agreements, including dialogues with IPCC Vice-Presidents to increase contributions from Latin American scientists for the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).
• The Executive Directorate has established a subregional network involving Argentina, Brazil, Chile, ICLEI, and UNOSSC to evaluate projects related to climate change, emissions, and air pollution in Latin American megacities.
• Efforts to expand membership and engagement include meetings with government representatives from Antigua and Barbuda, El Salvador, Grenada, Honduras, Saint Lucia, Suriname, and Trinidad and Tobago, with Suriname specifically analyzing the possible ratification of the Agreement.
• The IAI is diversifying its funding and operational capacity by seeking private sector partnerships, hiring consultants for fundraising, and hosting the Secretariat of the Belmont Forum in Montevideo starting in the summer of 2018.
• The IAI is enhancing its open data capabilities through the development of an open data portal supported by the Government of Uruguay and a joint open data position funded with the Belmont Forum and the University of Alberta.
