Support The Jane Goodall Institute Australia in Protecting The World’s Animals, People and Environment

Charity: The Jane Goodall Institute Australia
Location: Australia
Genre: Education
The Jane Goodall Institute Australia aims to inspire actions that connect people with animals and our shared environment.

The Jane Goodall Institute Australia (JGIA) was founded in 2007, and is an Australian non-profit and registered environmental non-government organisation. Our philosophy is centered on the interconnectedness of Animals, People and the Environment (APE).

We work to promote the conservation of chimpanzees and other great apes (as our closest living relatives in the animal kingdom) and, through our Roots & Shoots (R&S) program, aim to empower the next generation to be socially and environmentally conscious citizens of our shared planet.

Our Roots & Shoots Program empowers young Australians and equips them with the tools, motivation and support they need to address the problems that matter most to them. We create an ever expanding network of Australians, connected with their global counterparts, who are inspired to be change-making global citizens. Our Roots & Shoots members can apply for a mini grant to fund their projects.

Our Africa Programs conserve and protect chimpanzees, natural habitat and surrounding communities in Africa. Our community centered conservation programs include a range of activities from basic needs such as education, health and water sanitation to park rangers who protect animals from poachers. We also support chimpanzee sanctuaries which provide a lifelong home for orphaned animals.
