Borrador del Plan Estratégico del IAI

The draft Strategic Plan (2019–2044) outlines the IAI's vision to create a sustainable and informed American continent through science-based policy. It focuses on three main themes: meeting the needs of member states regarding global environmental change, advancing science for sustainability (covering food, water, energy, and biodiversity), and ensuring the IAI's own institutional sustainability through improved communication and funding. The plan emphasizes transdisciplinary research, open data, and the inclusion of underrepresented groups such as indigenous peoples and women.

• The IAI's vision for the 2019–2044 period is to enable an "inclusivo y sostenible" American continent that addresses global change challenges using flexible, science-based policies and actions.
• The Strategic Plan is structured around three core themes: addressing the needs of member states regarding global environmental change, developing science for the sustainability of the Americas, and ensuring the sustainability of the IAI itself.
• The IAI aims to act as a bridge between science and policy, serving as a forum for innovative projects and co-creating knowledge with policymakers to ensure research is "útil y oportuna" for societal needs.
• The scientific agenda (Theme II) prioritizes several critical areas: poverty and equality, food security, water security, climate action, energy security, health and wellbeing, and biodiversity and ecosystem services.
• The IAI establishes guiding principles that mandate the inclusion of underrepresented groups, specifically "pueblos originarios, la población rural pobre, los jóvenes y las mujeres", and the provision of open science and data.
• To ensure institutional growth and sustainability, the IAI intends to attract new members, specifically targeting the "islas del Caribe", and seek strategic alliances with non-regional countries such as Belgium, Denmark, France, Portugal, and Spain.
