Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI) and UN Messenger of Peace, Dr. Goodall is a world-renowned ethologist and activist inspiring greater understanding and action on behalf of the natural world. Dr. Goodall is known for groundbreaking studies of wild chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park, Tanzania, which forever changed our understanding of our relationship to the rest of the animal kingdom. This transformative research continues today as the longest-running wild chimpanzee study in the world. Dr. Goodall’s work builds on scientific innovations, growing a lifetime of advocacy, including trailblazing efforts through her international organization, the Jane Goodall Institute, which advances community-led conservation, animal welfare, science, and youth empowerment through JGI’s Roots & Shoots program. Today, she continues to connect with worldwide audiences, despite the challenges of the pandemic, through the Virtual Jane project, including remote lectures, recordings, and her podcast the Jane Goodall Hopecast. In 2021, Dr. Goodall was the recipient of the Templeton Prize, and her newest book, The Book of Hope: A Survival Guide for Trying Times, was published. She is a global icon spreading hope and turning it into meaningful positive impact to create a better world for people, other animals, and the planet we share.
