Jane Goodall went to the Gombe Stream Reserve in East Africa when she was 26. In a 2010 interview, Jane mentioned she just planned to stay there for three years. Yet, this turned out to be her lifelong career, as well as her legacy. What drives Jane into the wild? What did she witness? And what is her message to Hong Kong? Join us at The Education University of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Science Museum, Dialogue with Dr. Jane Goodall.
"The more I learned about chimpanzees, the more I realised there was more to learn — until I couldn’t stop." - Dr. Jane Goodall
野生動物保護是維持環境可持續性的主要重點之一,但並不只限於在野外或鄉郊地區採取的保育措施。作為一個國際大都會,香港在消耗全球自然資源方面扮演著一定的角色。是次研討會目的在於探索人類如何通過教育、社區參與、綠色金融和生態旅遊這四方面去實踐野生動物保護。通過國際知名環保主義者珍古德博士的演說及本地學者在研討會上的分享,可使參加者更了解人類如何在高度城市化的都市中為野生動物保護做出貢獻。

主題演講
Gombe and Beyond
Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, United Nations Messenger of Peace
November 60 years ago, a 26 year old girl from England hid among the robust leaves in the lush rainforest of Gombe, Tanzania, and saw something no one sles had previously recorded. A chimpanzee she named David Greybeard was a long stalks of grass to eat ants out of a mound. This woman was Jane Goodall.
“At that time, it was thought that humans, and only humans, used and made tools. I had been told from school onwards that the best definition of a human being was man the tool-maker, yet I had just watched a chimp tool-marker in action. I remember that day as vividly as if it was yesterday” - Dr. Jane Goodall
Dr. Jane Goodall changed our perceptions of primates, people and the connection between the two. And over the past 60 years, Goodall herself has also evolved from steadfast scientist to passionate conservationist and humanitarian, urging each of us to take action on behalf of all living things and planet we share.
