Next year will mark 40 years since Dr. Jane Goodall, UN Messenger of Peace became the founder of the Jane Goodall Institute. Over the last four decades, Dr. Goodall has grown the Institute into an international leader in conservation, improving our world for wildlife, other people and the habitats we share.
As Dr. Goodall and JGI prepare to celebrate this milestone with the theme of Tomorrow & Beyond, you can join by purchasing a special limited edition t-shirt just for this occasion.
