World-renowned primatologist, conservationist and UN Messenger of Peace, Dr Jane Goodall, is to give a public talk in Auckland on 23 June.

The 7pm talk at the Aotea Centre’s ASB Theatre is being hosted by Auckland Zoo and is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see and hear this inspirational 80-year-old who will speak about her life’s work in Africa and why she has reasons for hope.

Dr. Goodall will also share information about the work of the Jane Goodall Institute, which continues her pioneering research and celebrates its 37th anniversary this year. Today, the Institute is a global leader in the effort to protect chimpanzees and their habitats. It also is widely recognized for establishing innovative community-centered conservation and development programs in Africa, and Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots, the Institute’s global environmental and humanitarian youth program.

Dr. Goodall will provide insight into the person behind the globe-trotting international icon: a UN Messenger of Peace, Dame of the British Empire, and the subject of countless articles and television programs around the world. She will also discuss the current threats facing the planet and her reasons for hope in these complex times, encouraging everyone in the audience to do their part to make a positive difference each and every day.

All profits will go to the Jane Goodall Institute, supported by Auckland Zoo.

Tickets are $25 and can be booked through Ticketmaster – http://www.ticketmaster.co.nz/event/24004CB58B99119A or phone 0800 111 999.
