World-renowned conservationist Jane Goodall will be establishing a new sustainability academy in Taipei. Part of the Conservation Projects of Asia initiative, in partnership with the Tang Prize Foundation, the Jane Goodall Sustainability Academy in Taipei represents Asia’s first experimental elementary school dedicated to conservation and sustainability.
Jane Goodall is teaming up with Taiwan’s Tang Prize Foundation to launch a brand new sustainability academy in Taipei. The school is part of a series of conservation projects that Goodall is funding across Asia with the Tang Prize grant of NT$10 million (US$360,000) she received in 2020.
According to the foundation, the upcoming academy marks “Asia’s first experimental elementary school that focuses on conservation and sustainability issues.” The school will educate elementary school students, teaching them topics around sustainability, conservation and fostering a connection with nature.
“It will be an environment where students will feel free to explore and where the three core principles underpinning JGI’s programs can be applied, which are to help children acquire knowledge, develop empathy, and aspire to become environmental activists.
