  • The Latin America and Caribbean Initiative (LACI) aims to improve climate risk assessments to support local and regional decision-making, helping communities mitigate and adapt to climate change impacts. It brings together researchers, including IPCC assessment authors, decision-makers, and risk assessment experts.
  • During the scoping phase, representatives from 14 countries—Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, El Salvador, United States, Jamaica, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, and Uruguay—identified climate resilience priorities and mapped existing national capacities to optimize South-South and triangular (North-South-South) partnerships.
  • LACI has entered a pilot co-design phase with four specific projects: strengthening climate impact assessment capacities in El Salvador; improving data access and interoperability for climate risk assessments across Latin America and the Caribbean; enhancing risk assessment capacity for Amazonian user groups (focusing on indigenous communities, forests, and forest carbon); and improving national disaster preparedness and Earth emergency observations in Jamaica.
  • A specific pilot project focused on data interoperability, co-authored by the IAI Executive Directorate, the Ministry of Public Health of Uruguay, and RedCLARA, proposes using technologies such as blockchain to validate and monitor data and creating mechanisms to integrate national data at a regional level.
