Through the Jungle : A Sociological Journey with Jane Goodall

Step into the wild and explore the world through the life of Jane Goodall — the scientist, explorer. This is not just a course about animals or the environment; it’s about the societies we build, the beliefs we hold, and the courage it takes to question them.

From a curious girl in 1930s England to a groundbreaking researcher in the forests of Tanzania, from scientist to global activist.  We follow Jane’s journey as she challenges gender expectations, scientific traditions, and global attitudes toward nature.

Each week, you’ll step into a new chapter of her life, exploring sociological ideas about identity, deviance, observation, activism, and social change — while reflecting on your own place in the world.

This six-week adventure is designed for curious teens who love people, ideas, and the planet. Get ready to explore the jungle of society itself — where curiosity sparks courage, and one person’s voice can inspire global change.
