A notification from the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) inviting member Parties to nominate candidates for the Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) to fill vacancies occurring in June 2021.

• The Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) consists of ten members elected for three-year terms, with a maximum of one additional re-election period. The composition includes six members nominated by the Parties, three nominated by the SAC itself, and one nominated by the Institute's Associates.
• The SAC is responsible for several governance and scientific functions, including formulating recommendations on the Institute's Scientific Agenda and annual program, managing the peer review system, creating specific scientific committees, and evaluating the Institute's scientific results.
• Two vacancies will open in June 2021 as the terms of Dr. Mariana Meerhoff (Uruguay) and Dr. Edwin Castellanos (Guatemala) end. Dr. Meerhoff is eligible for re-election if nominated by a Party.
• Parties are invited to submit nominations of qualified scientists, including a brief curriculum vitae, to the Executive Director by May 20, 2020. Each Party may propose up to two candidates per vacancy.
• Elections for the SAC vacancies will take place during the CoP-29, generally starting from the second day of the Conference. Selection criteria must ensure equitable geographic distribution and representation of various disciplines related to global change research.
