Today we say farewell to Jane Goodall.

Her legacy reminds us that science & story must walk hand in hand, and that hope & action are inseparable.

We draw inspiration from her example and the way she showed the world that communication can spark compassion, courage, & change.

🌊 Proud team moment: the #HighSeasTreaty has reached 60 ratifications, triggering entry into force.

The first legally binding agreement to protect biodiversity in the High Seas is becoming reality.

Now the work continues: from 60 → global ratification.
