About us

Roots & Shoots Kenya is the Jane Goodall Institute's international and humanitarian programme for young people. Our mission is to foster respect and compassion for all living things, to promote understanding of all cultures and beliefs, and to inspire each individual to take action to make the world a better place for people, animals and the environment. All Roots & Shoots members, from pre-school to university, demonstrate their care and concern for living things through service projects in their communities and on a global level.


Roots & Shoots is guided by Dr Jane's philosophy that "every individual matters, every individual has a role to play, every individual makes a difference." Roots & Shoots members learn the importance of caring for others and at the same time develop self-respect, confidence in themselves, and hope for the future. Our members learn that working together to make the world a better place can be fun!
