TextPublication details: Alberta : 2000Description: 24 p. ; 28 cmOnline resources: Abstract: With the acceptance of the new Conservation Vision, DU re-focused its pursuit of habitat conservation. DU is aware that it cannot single-handedly provide all the conservation activity required to maintain the continental waterfowl population by using traditional,intensive programs. We have become aware that in order to become successful in the conservation of any habitat we require the conscious participation of the habitat owner. The need for a more effective approach to landowners has led DU to look at marketing and extension processes as a way of achieving some of its goals for habitat conservation. Marketing and extension are vehicles for changing how people think and for modifying their behaviour. Extension is a process that evokes a voluntary effort from people to make a change. If DU can lead a movement in which people will conserve waterfowl habitat voluntarily, then a greater benefit will be derived from the funds available to DU for conservation.
