Canadian National Bird Conservation Survey

The North American Waterfowl Management Plan (NAWMP) is an international agreement between the Governments of Canada, the United States, and Mexico to coordinate the conservation and restoration of wetlands, associated uplands, and other key habitats for waterfowl and other bird species. In an effort to understand public support of NAWMP goals, we conducted a national survey of Canadians, and asked about their perspectives on bird and habitat conservation. This research was approved by the University of Alberta’s Research Ethics Board (reference: Pro00112000). All participants provided informed consent prior to commencing the survey.

北美水禽管理计划（North American Waterfowl Management Plan，NAWMP）是加拿大、美国与墨西哥三国政府达成的国际协定，旨在协调水禽及其他鸟类物种的湿地、相关高地及其他关键栖息地的保护与修复工作。为了解公众对北美水禽管理计划目标的支持程度，我们针对加拿大民众开展了一项全国性调查，询问其对于鸟类与栖息地保护的看法。本研究已通过阿尔伯塔大学研究伦理委员会的审批（编号：Pro00112000），所有参与者在开始调查前均已签署知情同意书。
