On April 3, renowned ethnologist Dr. Jane Goodall celebrated her 90th birthday. Goodall's impactful work studying chimpanzees spans more than 60 years and inspired generations of scientists, conservationists, and photographers. To celebrate Goodall's birthday and her lasting influence, Vital Impacts and the Jane Goodall Institute have launched a joint campaign highlighting 90 trailblazing female photographers.
"There's no one else in the world who has done more to shape humanity's perspective on the planet, its wildlife, and our interconnectedness than Jane Goodall," photographer and Vital Impacts founder Ami Vitale said. "Her legacy literally spans continents, generations, and cultures, and she has created a global movement of stewardship and compassion. Jane's legacy isn’t just about studying chimpanzees; it’s about breaking down barriers, fostering empathy, and fostering a deeper connection with nature. Her spirit lives on in every one of us who has been touched by her words. She inspires us all to make a positive difference in the world."
As part of the “The Nature of Hope: 90 Years of Jane Goodall’s Impact” campaign, Vital Impacts will host a photography sale featuring the work of female photographers inspired by Goodall. Proceeds for the sale will benefit the Jane Goodall Institute’s global chapter.
"Photographers in the conservation landscape are a window to the world; and women who come together are a force—the combo is a great way to create awareness about the beauty of the planet we live on," photographer Karine Aigner said. "This project not only supports, empowers and uplifts female creatives, it allows the public to participate in hope, and it gives back to conservation—what better way to celebrate a birthday and a cause?!"
