Minutas del CE -XXXIII

The IAI Executive Council met on June 26, 2012, to address operational budgets, scientific research grants, and governance restructuring. Key outcomes include the recommendation of a tripartite headquarters model distributed across Uruguay, Brazil, and Argentina, and the approval of eight research projects under the third round of the Collaborative Research Network (CRN3) program. The Council also reviewed financial reports for the 2011-2012 fiscal year, noting a total of US$1.3 million in pending member contributions.

• The IAI is proposing a tripartite executive structure to distribute its leadership across three countries: the Executive Directorate of Integrated Operations and Finance in Montevideo, Uruguay; the Directorate of Scientific Development in São José dos Campos, Brazil; and the Directorate of Science-Policy Liaison in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
• As of April 30, 2012, the IAI had collected 99.5% of approved contributions for the 2011/2012 fiscal year, but total pending contributions from member countries amount to US$1.3 million, with Mexico and Venezuela each owing approximately US$294,000 and US$295,000 respectively.
• The Council accepted eight research projects for funding under the Third Round of the Collaborative Research Network (CRN3) program, with a total allocation of US$10.5 million for the 2012-2018 period.
• The second round of Collaborative Research Networks (CRNII) from 2005-2012 involved 223 researchers from 18 countries, receiving US$11.6 million from the US National Science Foundation (NSF) and US$32.1 million in additional funds.
• The Small Grant projects for the Human Dimensions (SGP-HD) program (2006-2011) concluded in August 2011, having involved 43 researchers across 10 countries with a total funding of US$1.39 million from the NSF and US$4.5 million in complementary funds.
• The IAI's operational budget for 2012-2013 is proposed at US$1,331,536, which represents a 1% reduction compared to the previous fiscal year and requires no changes to member country contribution levels.
