2020 International Science Report

Lead DUC Researcher: Stuart M. Slattery, Ph.D.

Ducks Unlimited was founded in 1937 to address concerns about declining waterfowl populations. From the start, we embraced a scientific approach and recognized that international collaboration is necessary to make a difference for migratory birds.

In recent decades, our research focus has expanded. Waterfowl still inspires our mission, but we’re also working to increase the understanding of how our conservation affects ecosystem services such as water quality, flood mitigation and carbon sequestration. This allows us make conservation decisions that are most likely to sustain waterfowl and provide measurable benefits to society.

Our International Science Report highlights the research and partnership of DU Inc., DU Canada and DU de México. It includes university-led research, projects conducted by DU staff and other activities supported by DU.
