“You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make.” - Jane Goodall

 

We join the world in mourning the loss of Dr. Jane Goodall, the visionary scientist, conservationist, and humanitarian whose groundbreaking research forever changed the way we understand the natural world.  From her pioneering field studies of chimpanzees in Gombe Stream National Park to her tireless advocacy for wildlife conservation and climate action, Dr. Goodall’s life’s work was defined by a profound respect for all living beings and an unshakable hope for the future.

For more than six decades, she inspired global audiences—including countless PBS viewers—with her message that each of us has the power to make a difference.  Through her research, writing, and activism, she reminded us that protecting the natural world is inseparable from nurturing compassion and justice in our own communities.

Below, you will find links to some programs that are now available to stream on the PBS app, some featuring Dr. Goodall and others that discuss the primates that she worked to protect.
