Jane Goodall
British primatologist, anthropologist, and UN Messenger of Peace. Her sixty-year study of wild chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park in Tanzania revolutionized our understanding of the relationship between humans and the rest of the animal kingdom. The Jane Goodall Institute, which she founded in 1977, advances conservation, education, and a contemplative practice of hope rooted in the resilience of nature, the power of young people, the indomitable human spirit, and the intelligence of non-human animals.
