964565 Liverman The goal of this project is threefold: to identify individuals and institutions developing research on issues related to the human and policy dimension of global change in the region; to inform Latin American social scientists about the research mission and project funding opportunities of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI); and to involve them in the development of the IAI's Human Dimensions research agenda. Although the IAI has held two meetings with Human Dimensions as one of the foci (at Taxco, Mexico, in 1993, jointly with the International Human Dimensions Programme; and at Bel=E9m, Brazil, in 1995), few proposals have been received by the IAI dealing with social, economic, or policy issues identified by these two meetings as critical to the success of the Institute. This survey will identify the current researchers, their institutions, and their programs in order to target these groups for specific program announcements and more detailed information regarding the availability of funds and areas of research interest for the IAI. The proposal will produce the following: 1) an overview paper of the IAI describing how environmental social science research can contribute to the IAI agenda; 2) a mailing list for the later use of the IAI Directorate in mailing Human Dimensions-related calls for proposals; 3) a tri-lingual survey (English, Spanish and Portuguese) addressing collaboration, resources and capabilities, electronic connectivity, and research interests and current projects; 4) a set of compiled survey results, and a preliminary analysis; and 5) a final report to the IAI Director and the IAI Scientific Advisory Committee. If the survey has a good response rate, it could also serve as the basis for a formal IAI directory on Human Dimensions Research in the Americas. %%% The goal of this project is threefold: to identify individuals and institutions developing research on issues related to the human and policy dimension of global cha nge in the region; to inform Latin American social scientists about the research mission and project funding opportunities of the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI); and to involve them in the development of the IAI's Human Dimensions research agenda.

该项目的目标有三个：确定就该区域全球变化的人和政策方面问题开展研究的个人和机构;向拉丁美洲社会科学家介绍美洲全球变化研究所的研究使命和项目供资机会; 让他们参与IAI人文因素研究议程的制定。 虽然国际影响研究所举行了两次会议，将人的方面作为重点之一（1993年在墨西哥的Taxco与国际人的方面方案联合举行; 1995年在巴西的Bel= E9 m举行），但国际影响研究所几乎没有收到关于这两次会议确定的对研究所成功至关重要的社会、经济或政策问题的建议。 这项调查将确定目前的研究人员，他们的机构，他们的计划，以针对这些群体的具体计划公告和更详细的信息，有关资金的可用性和研究领域的兴趣为IAI。 该提案将产生以下内容：1）IAI的概述文件，描述环境社会科学研究如何为IAI议程做出贡献; 2）IAI理事会日后在邮寄与人类活动相关的提案时使用的邮件列表; 3）三语调查（英文、西班牙文和葡萄牙文），涉及合作、资源和能力、电子连通性、研究兴趣和当前项目; 4）一套汇编的调查结果和初步分析; 5）向IAI主任和IAI科学咨询委员会提交最终报告。 如果调查的答复率很高，它也可以作为国际航空学会美洲人类因素研究正式目录的基础。 该项目的目标有三个方面：确定在该地区开展与全球变化的人和政策层面有关的问题研究的个人和机构;向拉丁美洲社会科学家通报美洲全球变化研究所的研究使命和项目资助机会;并让他们参与IAI人文因素研究议程的制定。 虽然协会举行了两次会议，将人的方面作为重点之一，但协会收到的关于这两次会议确定的对协会成功至关重要的社会、经济或政策问题的建议很少。 该提案将产生以下内容：1）IAI的概述文件，描述环境社会科学研究如何为IAI议程做出贡献; 2）IAI理事会日后在邮寄与人类活动相关的提案时使用的邮件列表; 3）三语调查（英文、西班牙文和葡萄牙文），涉及合作、资源和能力、电子连通性、研究兴趣和当前项目; 4）一套汇编的调查结果，并进行初步分析; 以及5）向IAI主任和IAI科学咨询委员会提交最终报告。 如果调查的答复率很高，它也可以作为国际航空学会美洲人类因素研究正式目录的基础。 国际影响研究所是一项旨在促进美洲对全球变化问题进行合作研究的倡议。 国家科学基金会是美国政府指定的机构，在IAI内履行美国的职责。 ***
