Informe del Consejo Ejecutivo del IAI

This report from the Executive Council (EC) of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI), prepared by the United States as President, outlines the EC's activities and oversight of decisions made during the 25th Conference of the Parties (CoP-25) in Bogotá. Key focus areas include the development of open data policies, improving access to official documents, establishing long-term communication and financing strategies, and the election of new EC members for the term starting June 2018.

• The Executive Council (EC) is composed of nine members, including Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Chile (Vice President), Costa Rica, the United States (President), Panama, and Paraguay (Vice President). The two-year term for these members expires in June 2018, and the Council is seeking nominations for new members with a focus on geographically balanced representation.
• The EC has overseen several administrative and transparency initiatives, including the creation of a provisional open data policy based on US National Science Foundation guidelines and the development of an open data catalog funded by the government of Uruguay. Additionally, the IAI has improved public access to official documents, including the recovery and publication of documents from CoP-1 to CoP-4.
• The IAI is developing long-term strategic plans for communication and financing. The communication strategy aims to increase awareness of the IAI at national, subnational, and regional levels and improve how policymakers value the Institute's scientific projects. Regarding financing, the EC is pursuing sustainable long-term funding, including the creation of a capital reserve fund and seeking tax-exempt status under section 501(c)(3) of the US Internal Revenue Code.
