These rare, in-person events offer Canadians a unique opportunity to hear directly from one of the world's most inspiring voices. Tickets are now available at JaneGoodall.ca/Events.
These intimate and uplifting experiences, titled "An Evening with Jane Goodall," will offer the audience an exclusive opportunity to hear directly from Dr. Goodall. The renowned conservationist is expected to share her personal stories, her unique insights, and her lessons learned over the past nine decades.
With her trademark humour, optimism, and warmth, Dr. Goodall will explore the profound connections between animals, people, and the environment. She will also emphasize the work that must be done by people across the country and around the world to build a better future for all living things.
A portion of proceeds from ticket sales directly supports the Jane Goodall Institute of Canada, which advances Dr. Goodall's mission across the country and amplifies and scales community-led actions to create a world where animals, people, and the environment thrive together.
Here at home, the Jane Goodall Institute of Canada works with young leaders and Indigenous Peoples on projects that address climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental inequity. This work is done, in part, through Jane Goodall's Roots & Shoots program. More than 12,000 young people are actively involved in projects across the country, and more than 80,000 community members are being positively impacted by this work.
The Jane Goodall Institute of Canada is proud to partner with G Adventures, an adventure travel company founded in Canada, to bring these special events to audiences in Toronto and Ottawa.
