The Jane Goodall Institute
No full textFounded in 1977 by the noted primatologist Jane Goodall and Genevieve, Princess di San Faustino, the Jane Goodall Institute's primary mission is to "advance the power of individuals to take informed and compassionate action to improve the environment of all living things." Of course, many of its activities center around the importance of increasing overall awareness of primate habitat conservation and this is definitely the focus of this timely website. A fist stop for any visitor to the site should be the "Chimpanzee Central" section, where they may learn about the behavior of these primates, their use of tools, and the various issues surrounding the conservation of their habitats. Another compelling area of the site is the "Roots & Shoots" section, which provides educational information about these service-learning projects that "promote care and concern for animals, the environment, and the human community"

Get PDFFirst paragraph: In January 2011, the Jane Goodall Institute convened conservation partners to develop a conservation action plan for great apes in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, in collaboration with the Ministry of Environment, Nature Conservation & Tourism and the Institut Congolais pour Conservation de la Nature. The main goal of this initiative was to identify critical threats to gorillas, chimpanzees and their habitats in the landscape, and to develop conservation strategies to address these threats. The Nature Conservancy's Conservation Action Planning methodology was followed. This approach is widely used and recognized as a rigorous, robust, and logical methodology due to the emphasis on science and use of the best available information. Given the vast area of the landscape and availability of the experts, partners and key actors, the conservation plan was conceived during a series of workshops with precise objectives, themselves preceded by preparatory meetings
