Paul Slovic examines "psychic numbing," our tendency to ignore mass tragedies despite valuing individual lives. He explains that as numbers grow, we become desensitized, failing to act against catastrophic losses from poverty, disease, climate disasters, and violence. Understanding this cognitive bias is crucial for motivating effective responses.

Dr. Slovic, a professor of psychology at the University of Oregon and President of Decision Research (which he co-founded), is a leading expert in risk perception. His extensive work, including research on global threats, has earned him numerous accolades, such as election to the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.

In July 1960, Jane Goodall arrived in Gombe, Tanzania, to study wild chimpanzees. Her discoveries, including that chimpanzees make and use tools, profoundly changed science and redefined what it means to be human.

Recognizing threats to chimpanzees, Jane shifted her focus to advocacy. She launched JGI's community-led Tacare conservation approach, championed animal welfare—including opening JGI's Tchimpounga sanctuary—and traveled globally to spread her message of hope.

Jane's legacy includes the Jane Goodall's Roots & Shoots youth program, empowering young people in over 75 countries. Join us on April 3rd to celebrate Jane and uphold her vital work for people, other animals, and our shared planet.
