Jane was part of a panel discussion on REDD, which stands for reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation. REDD was a hot topic in Copenhagen and one of the only clear &quot;winners&quot; of negotiations there. (Photo: Vasco van Roosmalen)

Jane hit it off with one of JGI's partners, Chief Almir Surui of the Surui peoples in Rondonia, Brasil. JGI is involved in a &ldquo;South-South&quot; forest monitoring and protection partnership with the Surui Carbon Project. Our forest monitors in Tanzania and Uganda share experiences and mutually support REDD-related, community-centered goals with their Brasilian counterparts.&nbsp; (Photo: Vasco van Roosmalen)

Networking with others working toward the same goal -- saving forests -- was an important activity for NGOs at the conference. JGI's project is a&nbsp; partnership of business, government and nonprofits, with partners including the Tanzanian government, Google.org, Google Earth Outreach, ESRI, DigitalGlobe, ACT Brazil, Forest Trends and the Woods Hole Research Center.

Jane took part in a panel discussion at a side event hosted by Avoided Deforestation Partners. The panel, titled &ldquo;International Leaders and Innovators on Forests and Climate,&rdquo; was moderated by&nbsp; journalist Thomas Friedman. Other participants included Sir Richard Branson; His Excellency Bharrat Jagdeo, president of Guyana; and the Honorable Jens Stoltenberg, prime minister of Norway. (Photo: Jacob Crawfurd)

Jane thanked the Norwegian prime minister for his country's support. The Royal Norwegian Embassy in Tanzania recently awarded JGI-Tanzania a three-year, $2.7 million grant for the REDD-related initiative. (Photo: Jacob Crawfurd)

Jane attended a Support REDD Event, hosted by the heads of state of four rainforest nations: New Guinea, Guyana, Gabon and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.&nbsp; (Photo: Jacob Crawfurd)

Jane met the president of Gabon, His Excellency Ali Bongo Ondimba.

On Jane's last night in&nbsp;Copenhagen, Maya Lin's What is Missing? Foundation presented Jane with a grant to support our work in&nbsp;Tanzania.&nbsp;

A Gombe youngster eyes our photographer while munching on some greens.

Mothers and infants are pretty much always in physical contact.

Gombe chimpanzee Fanni cradles her newborn, Fax.

Big eyes take in the world -- or at least Gombe National Park.

Gombe chimpanzee Flirt, daughter of Fifi and member of the highly successful &quot;F&quot; family at Gombe.

Jane Goodall observed that an attentive, relaxed mothering style seemed to be positive for youngsters.

Chimpanzees often remind us of ourselves.
