What does JGIS do?

JGIS is a non-profit organisation that helps with conservation and public education on primates and apes.

The organisation was kickstarted by a few volunteers comprising of scientists, educators and nature enthusiasts after renowned primatologist Jane Goodall visited Singapore in the 2000s.

Since then, JGIS has been engaging members of the public in various outreach programmes.

One example is Roots & Shoots, a group which empowers young Singaporeans to try to solve environmental problems or address the lack of awareness of wildlife.

Here's a group of preschoolers who helped organise a coastal clean up.

Kudos to them!

Volunteers from JGIS are trying to get more people to know about the Raffles' Banded Langurs too, which are extremely elusive and few left in Singapore.

On a more relatable note, JGIS plays an important role in reconciling the human-wildlife conflict between residents and the long-tailed macaques.

Volunteers from JGIS teach participants how to read expressions of macaques and recondition them so that they keep a friendly distance from people.
