Jane Goodall is one of the world’s leading primatologists. Her work in the 1960s revolutionized our understanding of chimpanzee behaviour, and challenged traditional research methodology. She now travels the world speaking about conservation and animal rights, and is the founder of the Jane Goodall Institute, which seeks to improve global understanding of great apes and help protect their habitat.
