Chairman’s Letter

President & CEO’s Letter

Across the Americas there is much work to be done as the COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to not only a public health crisis in Latin America but also the region’s most widespread economic contagion in a generation. At the same time, democratic institutions have weakened in various countries in the region as income inequality and poverty is growing. In many respects the challenges faced across Latin America mirror those faced by our founder, Ambassador Theodre Gildred II, who was inspired to establish the Institute forty years ago amidst the social strife and economic challenges brought about by the Latin American debt crisis of the early 1980s. To pro-actively respond to the region’s economic challenges, in 2022; IOA will be expanding its programmatic focus in the area of economic competi tiveness and the underlying conditions necessary to attract expanded investment in Latin America. As we celebrate the Institute‘s 40 th anniversary and honor the vision of Ambassador Gildred, IOA stands ready to lean in and do our part by striving to make a meaningful social impact in the work that we do. Thank you for all your on-going support to further the Institute of the Americas’ mission!

Institute to raise $4.5 million in three years for this construction. It was accomplished in two years. He matched the Institute’s fundraising with a gift from the Gildred Foundation to create the Institute’s endowment fund. A second campaign took place in 2000, enabling the expan sion of the Institute’s headquarter building offering additional office space and the creation of the Weaver Center. Upon his passing in 2019, Ambassador Gildred made a transformational legacy gift of $5 million through his estate to the Institute to ensure that our work in support of our mission would continue. On behalf of the Institute, I would like to formally thank the Gildred family for their steadfast support of Ambassador Gildred’s vision. Over the years, our programming has focused on a variety of issues and sectors including privatization, energy, mining, telecommunications and information technology, hemispheric policy, water, free trade, and more. With the COVID-19 pandemic, we have successfully transi tioned to offer programming virtually and in a hybrid format. Our programs now consist of Energy & Sustainability, Environment & Climate Change, and other special programs. We are advancing fast to increase our programming in 2022. Our new President & CEO, Richard Kiy and our Board of Directors --that I have the privilege to chair—are committed to keeping Ambassador Gildred’s vision very much alive. Here, we’re collectively working to ensure the Institute is an important player in the hemisphere, as a convener, a neutral meeting place for dialogue, and a relevant institu tion developing thoughtful apolitical analysis in response to the challenges of the region. As we come out of this pandemic, it is clear there is much work to be done. Many of the challenges from 40 years ago have unfortunately resurfaced again in the region including democracy, free trade, rule of law, and education, among other issues. We are up to the challenge and intend to be both active and proactive. We look forward to working with our partners both locally and abroad to provide high quality programming, dialogue, and networking opportunities.

It is with pleasure that we mark our 40th Anniversary honoring our founder, Ambassador Theodore E. Gildred II. Ambassador Gildred had a vision to create an Institute of the Americas, a neutral and robust place to bring together public and private sector leaders along with academia and

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, 2021 has proven to be another challenging year requiring the need for flexibility and adaptation among govern ment, business and nonprofit institutions across the Americas. The Institute of Americas (IOA) was no different. Over the past year, IOA has worked to pro-actively to respond to the changes

representatives of non-governmental organizations to “promote better understanding across the Americas.” This dream was realized in 1981 with the establishment of the Institute as a nonprofit organization. Ambassador Gildred was generous not only funding the construction of the Institute’s headquarters building, but also in creating an endowment fund for the Institute, and later by making a transformational endowment gift. When founding the Institute, Gildred recruited both local and international leaders for the Institute’s Board of Governors, now known as the Board of Directors. Among them were Helen Copley, my boss and mentor from Chile Edgardo Boeninger, Donald Kennedy and Richard Lyman both former presidents of Stanford University, Ambassador Gildred’s alma mater, Mexican businessman Lorenzo Servitje of Bimbo, Peter Bell of CARE International, Brazil ian Foreign and Commerce Minister Celso Lafer and Richard Atkinson, then the Chancellor of the University of California, San Diego (UC San Diego). Thanks to the encouragement of Atkinson, Gildred agreed to co-locate the Institute on the campus of UC San Diego in 1983. The high caliber of Institute leadership was unquestioned. Dr. Joseph Grunwald of the Brookings Institution was the Institute’s first president. He was followed by two Institute Presidents who played instrumental roles in the Institute’s development, specifically Ambassadors Paul Boeker and Jeffrey Davidow who brought and sustained Ted’s vision to life. They made the Institute a key player in the hemi sphere convening high level public dialogue, bringing together public policy, private sector, non-governmental, journalist, and academic leaders, and hosting several Latin American heads of the state to receive either the board’s Award for Democracy and Peace or its Leadership in the Americas Award. In 1993, Ambassador Gildred again collaborated with Chancellor Atkinson, this time to expand the Institute’s footprint here on campus to double the size of our plaza and construct the Gildred building and the Copley Interna tional Conference Center providing top notch conference indoor and outdoor facilities for Institute, university, and community gatherings. Ambassador Gildred challenged the

brought forward by COVID with expanded virtual programming and published research on emerging issues impacting in the Americas. In 2021, IOA launched its Hemisphere in Transition webinar series with programs featuring recognized experts on Cuba, Central America’s Northern Triangle Region, Canada, Ecuador, as well as the future of U.S. Engagement in the Hemisphere and Energy & Climate Financing in Latin America. IOA also launched its new Environment & Climate Change program, hiring the program’s director and published a report entitled Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) Across the Americas: A Comparative Hemispheric Analysis” in support of the 2015 Paris Agreement on climate change. Additionally, the Institute advanced work on its new Las Californias Blue Carbon Initiative to explore opportunities for expanded cross-border cooperation on biodiversity protection and climate action. Additionally, the Institute partnered with the UC San Diego Center for U.S-Mexico Studies on a U.S-Mexico Climate Change Working Group together with the Tecnológico de Monterrey and the Brookings Institution. IOA also expanded its research efforts. Besides the referenced NDC report, the Institute published China Stakes Its Claim in Latin American Energy: What It Means for the Region, the U.S. and Beijing and Clean Energy Cost-Savings: A Study of Mexico’s Federal Electricity Commission. Additionally, IOA’s Energy Program published a comprehensive analysis of Baja California’s energy access needs. In the area of expanded stakeholder engagement, IOA provided on-going community leadership through the convening of its Baja California Energy Ambassador’s Program and organizing a hybrid, in person, virtual forum in Honduras focused on that country’s energy reform efforts. In spite of COVID-related challenges, IOA adapted its pre-college and teacher focused STEAM related educational programs to benefit students and educators in Tijuana, Mexico; Peru; and Argentina.

2021 Selected Publications rograms China Stakes its Claim in Latin American Energy: What It Mean for the Region, the U.S. and Beijing

Future of Hydrocarbons

The climate imperative and emissions reduction goals have placed a clear demand on the oil and gas industry, regulators and governments to act faster.

China has become a major investor, lender and actor in Latin America and the Caribbean’s energy sector. With more than $58 billion invested between 2000 and 2019, China has clearly staked a claim in the region’s energy sector and critical minerals.

Future of Transport

Latin America & the Caribbean accounts for only 7% of greenhouse gas emissions but stores over a quarter of the world’s forest cover, almost half of the remain ing tropical forests and 25% of mangrove distribution that we all depend upon. Without expanded financial assistance this natural capital is at risk.

Advancements in Artificial Intelligence, energy storage, and fuel technology combined with changes in global shifts in demand, have greatly altered mobility and how the world moves people and products. READ REPORT

Energy & Sustainability Program

transition should look like particularly as the world descends on Glasgow for COP-26. Shaping Policy In an e ort to shape the emerging debate across the hemisphere as to the role of hydrogen, we produced a unique infographic series. Starting with discussions at our Energy Steering Committee meetings, we developed our infographic concept. We subsequently engaged with government o cials, investors, regulators and consultants to further our analysis for the series. Through 10 questions, we analyzed the landscape for hydrogen development and potential in 14 markets in Latin America – Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, Colom bia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Trinidad & Tobago, and Uruguay. In August and September, we collaborated with the Honduran Private Sector Council (COHEP) and the Central American Bank for Economic Integration (BCIE) on a series of workshops aimed at producing a roadmap for key policy and regulatory reforms in the Honduran energy sector. The “road map” de nes the critical next steps for the energy sector as the country elects a new government in Novem ber. Copies of the road map were presented to all the major political parties and candidates. Addressing Energy Access and Energy Poverty Beginning in February, in an e ort supported by the Sempra Foundation to assess energy access in the State of Baja California, we organized a bina tional team of policy, regulatory, and community expert including Colegio de la Frontera Norte (COLEF) and Pronatura. Our nal report, concluded in September, features a set of interactive maps, an

action plan and roadmap for project development that aims to improve energy access and reduce energy poverty for the most vulnerable popula tion centers and households in Baja California. On October 14, we convened our rst-ever hybrid event with a keynote followed by a roundtable “Debating Energy Security & Climate Action.” Discussion focused on nancing and the urgent need to reduce emissions yet not compromise energy access, but most of all, how to manage volatility. Increasing Energy Literacy In October, we kicked o the third edition of Baja California Energy Ambassadors, a key piece of our energy literacy e orts. The Ambassadors program consists of a series of high-level presentations and breakout discussions for non-energy sector professionals in Baja California.

Thought Leadership In 2021, the Energy & Sustainability Program continued to shape and inform the public policy and investment discourse across our hemisphere. Our team based in La Jolla, CA and non-resident fellows in Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Canada and England strives to enhance the debate of critical energy and sustainability issues through timely events and panels, thought leadership pieces including reports, op-eds and policy briefs as well as direct engagement with governments. Our e orts this year also counted videos, interviews and infographics. Our work and programs would not be possible without the nancial and intellectual support of our Steering Committee and sponsors.

In May, we marked the 30th anniversary of the La Jolla Energy Conference. We celebrated by hosting several programs throughout the month, as well as several “Deep Dive” inter views. Invite-only Virtual Roundtables each Wednesday provided the occasion for debate and discussion of four scenarios: 1) Elections and Energy; 2) Future of Transport; 3) Electrify ing Everything; 4) Future of Hydrocarbons. These sessions formed the basis for policy briefs published in June, July and August. Our additional research and thought-leader ship pieces included rethinking the energy matrix in Trinidad & Tobago, discussion of changes in power generation dispatch criterion in Mexico, Brazil’s new gas law, Uruguay’s energy sector, how the region’s utilities can chart a new path post-COVID, and what a just

Environment & Climate Change Program The Institute of the Americas’ Environment & Climate Change Program (EC2) strives to catalyze climate leadership amongst the private sector and local/regional governments in the Americas to promote sustainable growth, tackle climate change and minimize environmental impacts in the region with the goal of protecting its rich marine and land-based natural capital. In 2021, through its EC2 program the Institute led an effort to a) publish an analysis of the Nationally Determined Contributions pledged by countries across the Americas in support of the Paris Agreement on climate change; b) integrate the UC-MEXUS’ Gulf of California Marine program into its organization; c) partner with UC San Diego’s Center for US-Mexico Studies on the US-Mexico Climate Change Working Group, and d) analyzed opportunities for cross-border cooperation in the Californias, focused on blue carbon.

Las Californias Blue Carbon Initiative

In an effort to promote expanded binational climate action and protection of shared biodiversity across the Californias, the initiative examines potential blue carbon-fo cused, nature-based solutions to project and conserve priority nesting grounds for migratory bird species of importance to California located in coastal wetlands along the Baja California peninsula. Key Institute partners in the initiative include: Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego’s Center for U.S-Mexican Studies and Pronatura Noroeste.

Gulf of California Marine Program

US-Mexico Climate Change Working Group

40 th Anniversary

Inspired by a desire to respond to the economic challenges and human suffering brought about by the Latin American debt crisis of the early 1980’s, Ambassador Theodore Gildred II founded the Institute of the Americas in November 1981. In establishing the Institute, Gildred sought to promote expanded U.S. public and private sector engagement in the region. Over the years the Institute has played a crucial thought-leadership role in shaping policy discourse and informing policymakers and investors on important trends across the Americas on issues of energy, the environment, free trade, privatization of transportation and water infrastructure, education, economic competitiveness and workforce competitiveness, drug policy and journalist freedoms. In honor of Ambassador Gildred 's vision and generosity, the Institute celebrated its first of a series of 40th anniversary events with an outdoor luncheon on November 6th featuring a keynote address by Institute board member and former Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs, Ambassador Thomas Shannon. The anniversary luncheon was attended by members of the Gildred Family, past and current Institute Board members, senior leadership from the University of Califo r nia, San Diego as well as friends of the Institute.

The Institute of the Americas was established in 1981. Its complex on the UC San Diego campus is pictured under construction in 1982.
