Situación Financiera al 31 de octubre de 2007

The IAI report for the period ending October 31, 2007, reveals a reliance on four major contributors (USA, Brazil, Canada, and Mexico) to maintain operations, with only 53% of approved contributions for FY 2007/2008 collected. While operating expenses were 9.4% below budget, the institute is diversifying its funding through new grants from the MacArthur Foundation and IDRC. Programmatic updates include the closure of Collaborative Research Network I (CRN I) and the implementation of CRN II and the Small Grant Program for the Human Dimensions (SGP-HD).

• As of October 31, 2007, the IAI had collected 53% of the approved contributions for the 2007/2008 fiscal year. The institute remains heavily dependent on its four largest contributors: Brazil, Canada, Mexico, and the United States.
• Operating expenses for the period from July to October 2007 were 9.4% below the projected budget, totaling US$303,516 against a budget of US$334,927. Reductions were primarily seen in salaries, benefits, and travel.
• Brazil provides in-kind contributions through the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), covering costs such as office space, security, and local staff salaries. In the 2006/2007 fiscal year, these contributions totaled US$185,776.30.
• The IAI is diversifying its funding sources; a proposal to the MacArthur Foundation for evaluating environmental change impacts on biodiversity in the Andes was approved, with available funds of US$450,000 over two years. A proposal to the International Development Research Centre (IDRC) is also nearing approval.
• The Collaborative Research Network I (CRN I) officially closed in February 2007, but the National Science Foundation (NSF) granted a no-cost extension to complete the synthesis and dissemination of results, including the publication of the IAI-SCOPE book in Spanish.
• The Small Grant Program for the Human Dimensions (SGP-HD) was launched on January 26, 2007, with US$800,000 in funding from the NSF over two years. By October 2007, four of the six approved agreements had been signed and first-year funds transferred.
