Borrador Minutas del CE-XXX I

The 30th IAI Executive Council meeting focused on governance, strategic planning, and member engagement. Key outcomes included the election of a new Board, the establishment of a working group for a new Strategic Plan, and efforts to revitalize relationships with non-participatory member countries. The Council also discussed the synthesis of the CRN Program, balancing the continuity of established research networks with the need to recruit new scientific groups, and coordinated potential activities at the UNFCCC in Cancún.

• The Executive Council elected a new Board by acclamation, consisting of Paul Filmer (USA) as President, Carlos Ereño (Argentina) as First Vice President, and Ricardo Lozano (Colombia) as Second Vice President.
• The Council is coordinating efforts to increase IAI visibility at the UNFCCC in Cancún, with Colombia leading the organization of an informal meeting in coordination with the IAI Executive Directorate.
• To strengthen member relations, Argentina will attempt to contact Uruguay, Mexico will contact Guatemala, and the USA will use diplomatic channels to engage both active and non-participatory countries.
• The IAI is managing a tension in its CRN programs between maintaining permanent research networks and ensuring the inclusion of new groups to avoid the perception of being a 'network of old friends'.
• A working group comprising the IAI Executive Director, the EC President, and the SAC will draft a Strategic Plan by August, intended to define priorities within the scientific agenda and mechanisms for informed decision-making.
• Brazil committed to reviewing previous efforts to engage member countries and will present a report at the next EC meeting to help re-commit countries to the IAI.
