Informe de la Comisión de Implementación para la Dirección Tripartita del IAI
Summary
The report details the transition of the IAI to a tripartite structure. The Executive Directorate of Integrated Operations and Finance is operational in Montevideo, Uruguay, following a host country agreement that entered into force on December 13, 2013. The Science-Policy Liaison Directorate in Buenos Aires, Argentina, has renovated office space at the Ministry of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation, though staffing for the Director and assistants has faced delays. The Science Development Directorate in São José dos Campos, Brazil, remains under negotiation as the IAI seeks to ensure the host country agreement refers to the IAI as a whole rather than just the specific directorate to avoid operational difficulties.
Key insights
- The Executive Directorate of Integrated Operations and Finance is located in Montevideo, Uruguay, and is responsible for long-term plans, financial policy, annual budgets, and serving as the Secretariat for the Conference of the Parties, the Executive Council, and the Scientific Advisory Committee.
- The host country agreement with Uruguay was ratified in November and became effective on December 13, 2013, leading to the completed relocation of offices and personnel from Brazil.
- The Science-Policy Liaison Directorate is based in Buenos Aires, Argentina, within the Ministry of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation (MinCyT), and focuses on linking IAI scientific programs with policy-making communities and public awareness regarding global change.
- Staffing for the Science-Policy Liaison Directorate in Argentina has been delayed; while Dr. Tomás Lindemann was elected Director in December 2012, his hiring was slowed by the process of legalizing his foreign diploma in Argentina.
- The Science Development Directorate is located in São José dos Campos, Brazil, and is tasked with strategic vision, evaluating scientific program results, and identifying scientific gaps in the IAI portfolio.
- Implementation of the Science Development Directorate in Brazil is pending a new or modified host country agreement, as the IAI argues that the current draft's focus on the directorate rather than the IAI as a whole could create difficulties for personnel or property from other directorates located in Brazil.
