146. Together We Can Change the World with Jane Goodall
What do you get when you swap the office for a classroom and our hosts for school pupils? An incredibly special episode, we hope you\u2019ll agree.
Yes, that\u2019s right \u2013\xa0this week\u2019s conversation is brought to you from Totnes Progressive School, where the children were joined by an extraordinary guest: Dr Jane Goodall DBE, Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and United Nations Messenger of Peace.
With the support of Outrage + Optimism\u2019s Tom Rivett-Carnac and his sister Bee, who together wrote and illustrated a children\u2019s book voiced by Dr Goodall, the pupils take it in turns to ask about their guest\u2019s experiences, work, and thoughts on the future.
From Dr Goodall\u2019s memories of her own childhood to reflections on what children now can do to help in healing our planet, this is a moving lens on a remarkable life spanning nearly nine decades. Dr Goodall shares lessons from her mother about working hard and not giving up on dreams, as well as how together we can \u2013 and will \u2013 change the world.
We hope you find this conversation as inspirational as we do.
