This grant supports an IAI training program consisting of five Training Institutes and Colloquia on interdisciplinary themes of global environmental change science and its applications. As part of the training institutes, Seed Grants will be provided to successful participants to actively follow-up the training events and integrate the recipients with existing IAI research teams. Participants will be natural and social scientists, policy-makers, environmental practitioners and other stakeholders. Regionally important themes will be addressed: climate & public health, governance, risk, vulnerability and adaptation, water resource management, and research analysis tools including the modeling of complex human/natural systems. Seed grants will provide an opportunity for participants to stay engaged, to build networks and to apply the training provided to real-world issues. The program will strengthen and foster multinational and multidisciplinary collaboration and may also increase the participation of small countries in IAI research programs. These activities will be developed in collaboration with other IAI science programs so that current IAI research enhances the institutes and generates cross-program interactions.The Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) was created by an international agreement concluded among representatives of American States, namely the Agreement Establishing the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research, done at Montevideo on May 13, 1992 (the IAI Agreement). The IAI Agreement created an intergovernmental organization for the purposes of coordinating and promoting scientific research related to global change. The Institute has an evolving Scientific Agenda identifying particular areas for research. Full membership in the IAI is limited to States. The Institute is governed by an annual Conference of the Parties, and by a subsidiary Executive Council (EC). The US Government currently chairs the EC. The IAI possesses the fundamental institutional characteristics of an international organization: it was created by international agreement, is composed of States and is governed by bodies composed of representatives of States. The US Government participates actively in the IAI. The United States played a leading role in the creation of the IAI, and has been an active participant in the IAI since its creation. Senior US Government officials have served on the Executive Council and held other responsible positions related to IAI activities. Furthermore, the IAI has been listed by the State Department and by the Office of Personnel Management as an international organization within the meaning of the Federal Employees International Organization Service Act, covered by 5 U.S.C. 3343 and 5 U.S.C. 3581.

该赠款支持IAI培训计划，包括五个培训机构和全球环境变化科学及其应用的跨学科主题的座谈会。作为培训机构的一部分，将向成功的参与者提供种子赠款，以积极跟进培训活动，并将接受者纳入IAI现有的研究团队。与会者将是自然和社会科学家、决策者、环境工作者和其他利益攸关方。将讨论区域重要主题：气候公共卫生，治理，风险，脆弱性和适应，水资源管理和研究分析工具，包括复杂的人类/自然系统的建模。种子赠款将为参与者提供一个保持参与、建立网络和将所提供的培训应用于现实世界问题的机会。该计划将加强和促进多国和多学科合作，也可能增加小国在IAI研究计划中的参与。美洲全球变化研究所（IAI）是根据美洲国家代表于5月13日在蒙得维的亚签署的《建立美洲全球变化研究所协定》成立的，该协定旨在促进美洲国家间全球变化研究所的发展，并促进该研究所的发展。1992年（IAI协定）。IAI协议创建了一个政府间组织，以协调和促进与全球变化有关的科学研究。研究所有一个不断发展的科学议程，确定了具体的研究领域。IAI的正式成员仅限于国家。研究所由缔约方年度会议和附属执行理事会（欧共体）管理。美国政府目前担任欧盟委员会主席。国际航空工业组织具有国际组织的基本体制特征：它是根据国际协定建立的，由国家组成，并由国家代表组成的机构管理。美国政府积极参与IAI。美国在IAI的创建中发挥了主导作用，并自IAI创建以来一直积极参与。美国政府高级官员曾在执行理事会任职，并担任与国际航空工业协会活动有关的其他负责职务。此外，IAI已被国务院和人事管理办公室列为《联邦雇员国际组织服务法》所指的国际组织。3343和5美国3581.
