About Us

Dairy for Global Nutrition is a U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC) initiative designed to advance the science of dairy and document its benefits for the world's most vulnerable populations.  We believe scientifically valid information on the efficacy of dairy ingredients can help decision-makers optimize their scarce resources and bring greater health results to key vulnerable populations.

Today, USDEC's Dairy for Global Nutrition initiative provides funding for independent field trials that test dosage, timing, and duration of interventions; ingredients for product prototypes; and scientific and market information on dairy ingredients.  We invite you to use this website to access much of the collected information, and to contact us if you have additional questions or information to share at

The U.S. Dairy Export Council (USDEC) is a non-profit, independent membership organization that represents the export trade interests of U.S. milk producers, proprietary processors, dairy cooperatives, and export traders.
