  • The Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) is an intergovernmental organization with a dual objective: to improve the understanding of global environmental change and its socioeconomic implications in the Americas, and to provide member countries' policymakers and decision-makers with robust scientific information to develop appropriate plans and actions.
  • The IAI was established following a call from world leaders at the 1992 United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The goal was to create an international entity with a regional focus to conduct multinational cooperative research and produce scientific information that individual countries could not generate alone.
  • The IAI was formally established on May 13, 1992, in Montevideo, Uruguay, initially signed by sixteen countries. It currently has 19 member countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Ecuador, United States of America, Guatemala, Jamaica, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Dominican Republic, Uruguay, and Venezuela.
