We want you to meet the newest arrival at Tchimpounga, Bili! In Nigeria, she got care from professionals at an internationally-accredited primate sanctuary. But that was not the best place for her – because western lowland gorillas are quite social, and not native to Nigeria. Photo: Fernando Turmo

This weekend, we're thanking Jane for what she gave us – her wisdom, bravery, and example that one person can make an incredible difference. We're also thanking you. We're honoured that you chose to stand with Jane, and we're grateful that you continue to stand with our team. Video: Bill Wallauer

To make sure more young girls have that same shot, the Jane Goodall Institute of Canada is committed to working with partners who are addressing barriers, removing obstacles, and amplifying young leaders and the great ideas they have.

Jane Goodall Institute of Canada @janegoodallcan.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

With support, with resources, and with guidance, these young leaders can do so much good. We know this because Jane was once that girl. With support from her mother, she was able to do what she had dreamed of – and you know the rest. She changed science forever and inspired millions.

Young people gave Jane hope. She knew they were the leaders of the future, and they were leading the way forward already. We feel the same way. But we also know that young people – young girls, especially – face real challenges. Photos: Hugo van Lawick / Stephano Lihedule / Bridget Hoffman

These masks help protect the apes from human-borne illness, because even the common cold can make them sick – and worse. The team also tends to stay at least seven metres away from the chimpanzees. This distance helps reduce stress and prevents accidental exposure to human diseases. Learn more:

One year ago, the world lost one of its strongest advocates. Dr. Jane Goodall spent years advocating for animal welfare, for community-led conservation, and for youth environmental leadership. She knew that each one of us had an important role to play, and she made sure that we knew that, too.

We must also remember that the work of reconciliation must last more than just one day – but the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation does give all of us an opportunity to pause and to spend some much-needed time reflecting, learning, accessing resources, and getting involved.
