Policy Engagement

Supporting informed decision making

CIGLR supports informed decision making by translating research findings, providing NOAA’s tools and data products, and identifying critical research needs to key Great Lakes decision makers. We also collaborate with partners at The Nature Conservancy, National Wildlife Federation, and Michigan Environmental Council, who represent the strongest advocates for science-based decision making in the Great Lakes.
