Jane Goodall is one of the most important person known for her works concerning chimpanzee's protection.Antropologist, ethologist and primatologist, Jane Goodall founded the "jane goodall institute" in 1977 after having studied chimpanzee in Gombe Stream National Park (Tanzania) in 1960.
The institute is not only focused on chimpanzee, but it deals with the human communities too. Five countries (Gabon, Rep.of Congo, Ouganda, Tanzania, South Africa) are concerned, in which the institute has numerous projects including the population. These communities are directly concerned about chimpanzee because of their geographical location. By giving them other jobs' alternatives, these people wouldn't capture or kill monkeys anymore to sell them for having more money. On another hand, these communities are suffering from poverty and from the destruction of their own habitat, that's why Jane Goodall Institute is also involved in reforestation and in developpement of sustainable means to reduce environment's damages. Training course about agriculture, developpment and distribution of seedling, sanitization of water...every means is used to enable the population to get rid of their misery and improve their way of life.
