In 1960, Jane Goodall walked into the forests of Tanzania with nothing but a notebook and curiosity. She lived among chimpanzees and she didn’t just study them, she changed the way we understand them and through her work we know that these animals have personalities, emotions, and complex social lives.
Jane spent the next six decades building a global movement to protect wildlife and wild places. She founded the Jane Goodall Institute and launched youth programs across the world.
Even in her old age, she traveled relentlessly over 300 days a year urging action, fostering youth, and reminding us that change begins with caring and acting.
She passed away on October 1st, but her work lives on not just in the forests of Africa, but in every young person planting a tree, every traveler choosing responsible tourism, and every guide helping people connect with nature.
In her legacy, we reaffirm our commitment to sustainable tourism and support to efforts aimed at protecting the wild places she dearly loved.
