REUNIÓN HIBRIDA DE LA JUNTA ASESORA DEL CENTRO DE DIPLOMACIA CIENTÍFICA

The Scientific Diplomacy Center (SDC) of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) is establishing a framework to strengthen the science-policy interface across the Americas. The center aims to provide member states with scientific evidence to address global change challenges, including food security, water resources, and disaster risk management. Key proposed initiatives include developing a scientific diplomacy knowledge hub, creating training courses for policymakers and negotiators, and conducting outreach to analyze how scientific information is translated into policy. The SDC plans to co-design its three-year priority activities with IAI member states, with a specific engagement plan for COP 31 to ensure these initiatives meet regional needs.

• The SDC's mission is to enhance the capacity of IAI member states to meet Strategic Plan goals and Sustainable Development Goals by strengthening the science-policy interface and creating a scientific diplomacy knowledge hub for the Americas.
• The center identifies several priority areas for regional action, specifically food security, agriculture, oceans, water, and the reduction and management of disaster risk.
• Proposed priority activities include conducting outreach to analyze the flow of scientific information into government policy and developing training courses for policymakers and negotiators on scientific diplomacy and multilateral negotiation practices.
• The SDC intends to develop a digital knowledge platform for scientific diplomacy, potentially using the REDD+ digital platform as a template, to provide access to case studies, scientific literature, and policy documents.
• The center will use COP 31 as a primary engagement point to co-design its three-year work plan with member states through virtual calls and a side event, ensuring states are co-owners of the initiatives.
