BAM presents a special evening with renowned primatologist and trailblazing conservationist Dr. Jane Goodall.
In a lecture entitled Sowing the Seeds of Hope, Dr. Goodall shares stories from her new book, Seeds of Hope: Wisdom and Wonder from the World of Plants, discusses the impact of her groundbreaking chimpanzee behavioral research in Gombe, and expounds on her fascination with animals and Africa. Dr. Goodall will also address current threats facing the planet and her reasons for hope in these complex times.
Dr. Goodall’s research has fundamentally altered scientific thinking about the relationship between humans and animals. In July 1960, she began her landmark study of chimpanzee behavior in what is now Tanzania. Her work at Gombe Stream would become the foundation of future primatological research.
