Summary
This briefing document from the IAI Directorate, prepared for the twenty-seventh meeting of the Conference of the Parties in June 2019, outlines the framework and current status of financial contributions to the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI). It emphasizes the distinction between core budget funding and extra-budgetary contributions used for programmatic activities.
Key insights
- The IAI's financial structure relies on a core budget to ensure the Institute functions effectively, with a recommendation that all Parties contribute to this budget to the fullest extent of their capability.
- Extra-budgetary contributions are used exclusively for programmatic activities, including the IAI scientific agenda and capacity building programs, and are distinct from the core budget.
- The IAI Directorate is seeking to diversify its extra-budgetary funding sources because historical reliance on a few or a single Party is considered unsustainable in the long-term.
- The United States of America has provided extra-budgetary contributions that enabled the Collaborative Research Networks Program and other activities.
