JANE & Me Dr. Jane Goodall Japan Visit - Relay Message

Since her appointment as a United Nations Messenger of Peace in 2002, Dr. Jane Goodall has consistently delivered powerful messages on the importance of harmony and coexistence among people, animals, and the nature.
We are deeply honored by the opportunity to hear her speak in person and to gain insight from her extraordinary journey — beginning with her early career as a secretary and evolving into a life of groundbreaking scientific work and global advocacy.

In her boundless curiosity and the way she gazes upon life with unwavering compassion, I see a vision of our shared future — and a reflection of hope for humanity.

As ecosystems around the world are being destroyed and countless lives are lost to war, we find ourselves living in an increasingly chaotic era.Yet, Dr. Jane Goodall continues to remind us that "there is still hope."
We truly hope that many people will have the chance to meet and be inspired by her.

In the face of the climate crisis, educators are stepping up—facing it head-on and taking action together. And educators are not just teachers. They include parents, community members, and everyone involved in shaping the next generation.

Remembering Jane’s curiosity, her spirit of challenge, and her gentle gaze toward animals, I continue to be inspired by her to take meaningful action—fulfilling my own role in this shared journey.

My childhood dream was to work in wildlife conservation in Africa. I often dreamed of scenes where I lived alongside cheetahs. Today, I’m working in Japan on forest restoration projects for the benefit of wild animals. There are times when the harsh realities nearly break my heart, but I have always held deep admiration and respect for Jane—for her all-embracing love and her words that resonate with truth. I look forward to the day when like-minded people come together, our paths feel affirmed, and hope and strength fill the air.

I feel empowered by Dr. Jane’s gentle yet unwavering words that believe in the potential of each and every one of us, and softly remind us, “You truly can make a difference.” Her message inspires me to use the gift of my life for the good of this planet.

As a woman and as an activist, I deeply admire her. I’m truly looking forward to the three days of inspiration ahead!

It’s time to act — together, beyond titles and generations. “Hope is in action.” Jane’s message speaks to everyone equally. Let’s unite and become hope for the world!

At one time, the forests of Gombe in Tanzania were facing severe destruction. But thanks to ongoing conservation efforts, they have begun to recover and expand once again. There is no shortage of bad news in the world—but we must not lose hope, and in fact, we have no reason to. That is the message Dr. Jane continues to share with us.

I deeply admire Dr. Goodall, a woman who dedicates herself selflessly for animals, the environment, and the next generation.Please don’t miss this extraordinary opportunity to hear her powerful and inspiring message.

We offer our deepest respect and gratitude to Dr. Goodall, whose life and work resonate with the principles of the Goi Peace Foundation’s Charter for a Harmonious Civilization, and who has always walked with deep reverence for all forms of life. Her compassionate vision continues to gently transform the world.

Every species of plant and animal has a role to play in the tapestry of life (Foreword by Dr. Jane from the book “Regeneration"). Let us come together to rediscover the potential that lies within us all.
