Dr. Jane Goodall in Victoria

I have the great pleasure to welcome Dr. Jane Goodall to Real Parenting this Saturday October 15 from 10-10:30am PT on CFAX 1070.

Dr. Jane Goodall became famous for her pioneering research with Chimpanzees, a project she began in 1960 when she arrived on the shores of Lake Tanganyika in Tanzania, East Africa as a young woman. Despite the critics prediction that her research would be short lived, Jane’s work has grown over fifty years, garnering her numerous awards and making her a world renowned leader in environmental and humanitarian education and action.

We will discuss what Dr. Goodall’s research into chimpanzee behaviour has revealed about the importance of the mother-child relationship, the Roots & Shoots global youth action program and her many children’s books.

Jane will be speaking at the Alix Goolden Performance Hall in the evening of Saturday 15, which is sold out, so be sure to tune in for your chance to hear her speak on CFAX 1070 at 10am! For more info about Jane visit the Jane Goodall Institute of Canada.
