On 14 and 17 July, the chimpanzee will be in the spotlight in honour of World Chimp Day! On Sunday, July 17, the Jane Goodall Institute Belgium will be a guest at Pakawi Park to celebrate this special day,
which marks the day Jane Goodall arrived in Tanzania to start her legendary research on chimpanzees.

The booths will offer a variety of kid-friendly activities and provide information about the Jane
Goodall Institute’s projects, and what we do for chimpanzees in the wild and in our sanctuaries in Africa.

There will be feeding sessions with the chimps, an enrichment activity, and a presentation about what makes chimpanzees unique, all in honour of World Chimpanzee Day.
Curious? We’ll see you in Pakawi Park on July 17th!
