A public lecture and dialogue with Dr Jane Goodall DBE, world-renowned conservationist and UN Messenger for Peace.
Come listen to Dr Goodall’s amazing journey from the moment she ‘redefined man’ based on her ground-breaking research at age 26 to her tireless crusade now at age 85 to save wildlife and protect habitats. She will share stories from around the world of bold action taken to drive community-centred conservation and sustainable development.
With the world’s climate change challenge and Singapore’s need for long-term solutions highlighted during the most recent National Day Rally, taking care of our shared planet has never more important and urgent. Dr Goodall will speak about how individuals and city dwellers like us can make a difference to create a better world for people, animals, and environment.
The event’s guest-of-honour is Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Heng Swee Keat, who will start our evening with an opening address. Dr Goodall will then speak for 45 minutes before a Q&A session that will be moderated by Ambassador-at-Large Professor Tommy Koh (also Chair, Asia-Pacific Centre for Environmental Law).
Be inspired by Dr Goodall’s stories of inspiration and hope, and discover how every one of us can do our part to live in harmony with nature and wildlife. Proceeds from ticket sales will go towards supporting the work of the Jane Goodall Institute (Singapore).
