Seera Akra - Jane Goodall

Jane Goodall is a famous British scientific scholar. She is a primatologist, an anthropologist, an ethologist. Thus, she studied the origin of species, specifically human beings, and animal behavior in general. However, she is mostly interested in studying and protecting chimpanzees.

Due to her extensive work, she was chosen as the UN messenger of peace. Jane Goodall has a website called Roots and Shoots by which she aims to connect young people to their origins, other animals, and the environment. Thus, the shoots and roots network organizes projects for those youths who are interested in making a difference. Moreover, Jane Goodall’s ideas and work are adopted by another institution which is named before her: The Jane Goodall Institute (JGI). It aims to protect apes in all fields and keep them preserved. It also raises awareness to youths making them more conscious about all living animals and their surroundings and ready to take action to protect them.
