The issues facing our planet today - social, political and economic continue to evade solutions from Governing institutions. Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots offers an alternative outlook through its resourceful environmental and humanitarian projects, inspiring legions of the next generations towards a healthier and more sustainable future. This will be interwoven with my own personal experience of how I came to work in the conservation field and the journey I undertook to get there.
