Observe: Are you unsure of what issue you want to address? Try community mapping! In Africa, the Jane Goodall Institute’s (JGI) experts in conservation use mapping to improve communities around chimpanzee habitats with the involvement of local, indigenous knowledge. At Roots & Shoots, young people are the experts! You will use the same strategy as JGI's scientists and field experts to explore your local community and identify areas to make a difference with a tool called Community Mapping. |
CHOOSE YOUR MAPPING TOOL: If you're looking for a quick way to get started and choose 3 projects (one for people, one for animals, and one for the environment) start with this community mind map activity. |
