The Jane Goodall Institute Australia

The Jane Goodall Institute Australia (JGIA) is a not-for-profit, non-government organisation that supports wildlife research, education and conservation. Our programs reflect our organisation's purpose of inspiring actions that connect people with animals and our shared environment. Our holistic approach sets us apart from other conservation organisations and is critical for long term viability. We have two flagship programs. 1. Our Africa Program reflects the primate origin of JGIA. Through our Chimp Guardian program, Australians are helping to save critically endangered chimpanzees from extinction by sponsoring the care of orphan chimpanzees in our African sanctuaries. We are also contributing to the protection of other Great Apes. Through our mobile phone recycling campaign, we are reducing the demand of coltan (mined from fragile gorilla and chimpanzee habitats), reducing landfill and funding important conservation work in the Congo River Basin. Our community-centred conservation activities include a range of activities from basic needs such as education, health and water sanitation to park rangers who protect animals from poachers. We provide micro-financing to local groups and empower local communities to make a difference. 2. Our Roots & Shoots environmental and humanitarian education program inspires and empowers the whole community to learn about and solve problems affecting people, animals and the environment. We support youth, community groups, indigenous communities and corporate Roots & Shoots groups. We also link our Roots & Shoots members to international members, creating a worldwide network of conscientious problem solvers and change-makers. Put simply, everything we do is underpinned by our ‘APE' philosophy of Animals, People and the Environment.
