Today, the UN family mourns the loss of Dr. Jane Goodall.

 



 

  • The UN's October 1, 2025, post announces Dr. Jane Goodall's death at age 91 during a U.S. speaking tour, honoring her as a pioneering scientist, conservationist, and UN Messenger of Peace since 2002, with a portrait of her beside the UN flag.
  • Goodall's 1960 fieldwork in Tanzania revealed chimpanzees using and making tools, overturning the era's belief in human-exclusive tool use and reshaping understandings of animal intelligence and culture.
  • Her Jane Goodall Institute protects 3.4 million acres of habitat and aids 290 chimpanzees and gorillas in sanctuaries, while Roots & Shoots mobilizes over 8,000 youth groups in 140 countries for environmental and humanitarian action.
