Hello Neighbourly community, next month will see the famed ethologist and environmentalist Dr Jane Goodall visit Dunedin’s Regent Theatre to discuss hope for the natural world in challenging times.

Dr Goodall transformed the way we think about animals through her ground-breaking work with primates in the 1960's, and has been a staunch environmental crusader since.

An Evening with Dr Jane Goodall will see Radio New Zealand’s Kathryn Ryan host a fireside conversation with Dr Goodall, along with a question and answer session. Compelling, passionate and ever-insightful, Dr Goodall’s Dunedin visit is not to be missed! We can't wait to see you there.
