With the aim of strengthening regional capacity to address global challenges, the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research (IAI) and the Geneva Learning Foundation (TGLF) have signed a strategic partnership to expand transdisciplinary learning and action throughout the Americas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The agreement combines TGLF’s internationally recognized peer learning methodologies with IAI’s regional networks and scientific expertise. Together, the two institutions will promote collaborative initiatives in critical areas such as climate and health, environmental sustainability, and other pressing issues at the intersection of science, policy, and community engagement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis partnership reflects a shared commitment to equity, multilingual accessibility, and evidence-based action,\u201d said Anna Stewart Ibarra, executive director of the IAI, underscoring the potential to bridge gaps between research, practice, and policy through joint initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
TGLF, a Swiss-based nonprofit organization, has created a network of more than 70,000 health professionals worldwide, pioneering innovative approaches to learning and capacity building in health and humanitarian contexts. The IAI, comprising 19 member states, leads transdisciplinary research, science diplomacy, and capacity building to address global change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mutual commitments and coordination<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The collaboration will begin with a focus on climate and health, and plans to expand into areas such as health equity, decolonization of knowledge systems, and science diplomacy. Planned activities include joint educational programs, regional peer learning, adaptation of multilingual content, and exchanges that connect scientific expertise with community knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As part of the agreement, IAI will lead regional dissemination and cultural and linguistic adaptation, and facilitate government and institution participation. TGLF will contribute its peer learning platforms, open-source frameworks, and professional networks to promote interregional exchange and the use of local knowledge in research and policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
