Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research

Climate change, research, science, capacity building

The Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI), an intergovernmental organization composed of 19 Parties in the Americas, identifies adaptation to the impacts of global change as an issue of the highest relevance that the region should address through scientific collaboration and trans disciplinary research. Accordingly, the Conference of the Parties to the IAI invited the international community represented at the 20th session of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (Lima, 2014) to make efforts for finding and implementing viable adaptation strategies, with the participation of the peoples of the region and through the development of regional capacities and support to the development of new technologies. In this context, the Seed Grant Programme was designed to encourage network building, to promote the application of the training provided to pressing real-world issues that have a significant global change dimension, to foster multinational and multidisciplinary collaboration, to develop proposal writing skills, to develop and strengthen management capacity for international grants, and to increase the participation of small countries in IAI research programs.
