From the Editor-in-Chief
In honour of our International Patron, Dr Jane Goodall DBE, and her 2014 Australian tour,
this issue of SwitchOn! Magazine and our ‘Walk on the Wild Side’ special feature is dedicated
to Dr Jane. We ask all our readers to please take action for great ape conservation in what
ever way you can throughout 2014, whether that is by avoiding palm oil, recycling your mobile
phones, sponsoring a chimpanzee or orang-utan, or just making a donation to one of the many
excellent primate conservation organisations featured in this ‘Walk on the Wild Side’ edition.
Every action counts! Thank you.
