Informe Conjunto del Comité Asesor en Ciencia (SAC) y el Comité Asesor en Ciencia-Políticas (SPAC)

The joint report by the SAC and SPAC details the current membership status of both committees, including vacancies and upcoming elections for the 28th Conference of the Parties. It outlines collaborative activities conducted between August 2019 and June 2020, including eight teleconferences focused on the IAI scientific agenda, funding opportunities, and the creation of a COVID-19 working group. The committees also contributed to the review of the IAI Scientific Agenda, the editorial process for a special CRN3 edition, and a five-year proposal submitted to the NSF regarding science-informed policy in the Americas.

• The SAC and SPAC conducted eight joint teleconferences between August 27, 2019, and June 2, 2020, to improve communication and knowledge exchange. Discussions covered the scientific agenda, IAI grant peer-review reports, the CRN3 special edition, funding opportunities, alignment with the Strategic Plan, and the formation of a COVID-19 working group.
• The committees collaborated on updating the IAI Scientific Agenda to better reflect interdisciplinary research, specifically focusing on human problems and systems, in alignment with the IAI Strategic Plan.
• The SAC and SPAC provided input on a five-year proposal submitted to the NSF titled 'Development of capacities for science-informed policy in the Americas through regional collaboration, global change science synthesis, science diplomacy and transdisciplinary networks'.
• A dedicated working group was established in May 2020 to identify strategic areas where the IAI can support member parties in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the goal of producing recommendations for dissemination via publications and webinars.
