Learn more about your impact
The Institute of Human Origins houses the physical materials of the Jane Goodall Institute Gombe Chimpanzee Research Archive — over 60 years of handwritten observations of wild chimpanzees in Gombe National Park. For the continued protection of these irreplaceable, priceless materials, your generous contributions help us establish a world-class secure space to include fire- and water-proof filing cabinets fitted with acid-free, archival quality folders. Your contributions will also directly support the digitization of these priceless records and database expansion, to establish a collaborative, digital platform through which research can be accessed and shared.
