Following the passing of Dr. Jane Goodall, Roots & Shoots groups worldwide have honoured her legacy through meaningful initiatives and reflections.
🌱 Roots & Shoots Tanzania shared a message, emphasising that “death is not the end of love, but the beginning of a memory that can never be erased.”
🌊 Roots & Shoots Freetown, Sierra Leone, organised a beach clean-up, with over 50 members participating. Before starting, they held a one-minute silence in her honour. The team cleared seaweed, plastic, and rubber waste from the beach.
💚 In Goma, Democratic Republic of Congo, the “Léopard Volant” Roots & Shoots club held a tribute gathering. Members reflected on her impact and reaffirmed their dedication to her mission. Their message was clear: “We are Dr. Jane Goodall.” They pledged to continue her work, ensuring her mission lives on through their actions.
