Beginning with her revolutionary research on chimpanzees, Dr. Jane Goodall has been a conservation icon for over 60 years. But she can’t do this work alone.
At the Jane Goodall Institute of Tanzania, we’re building a better, more sustainable world through community-centred conservation programs that support the intersection of animals, people, and the environment. We’re continuing the work that Jane started in Africa more than 60 years ago. And we’re bringing that work home to the 49th parallel.
Join us. And turn hope into action.
The Jane Goodall Institute promotes understanding and protection of great apes and their habitat and builds on the legacy of Dr. Jane Goodall, our founder, to inspire individual action by young people of all ages to help animals, other people and to protect the world we all share.
We advance the vision and work of Dr. Jane Goodall to lead a movement of conservation for the common good—one that builds on our connections to each other, our fellow species, and the natural world we all share. Following in the trailblazing footsteps of our founder, we inspire hope through action, encouraging individuals around the world to join us in taking care of the planet we call home. Whether we’re restoring chimpanzee habitat, improving women’s health in a nearby village, or working with our Roots & Shoots youth groups in nearly 100 countries, we find practical ways to make the greatest lasting impact for people, animals and the environment.
