Palaeontological Scientific Trust

Palaeontological Scientific Trust's (PAST) work is to discover prehistory’s course and to promote its compelling, fact-based lessons. Written in fossils and genes, and rooted in the shared origins of humankind and all living things, the lessons call for human unity and nature conservation, and are powerful tools for confronting the most fundamental challenges facing societies everywhere: discrimination and human-induced loss of natural environments and biodiversity. We share these valuable lessons through Research, Education and our #AllFromOne Public Understanding campaign. We are the largest, independent, African-based NGO supporting the science of our shared origins.
