What Japanese award did Jane Goodall receive in 1990?

The Japanese award Jane Goodall received in 1990 was the Kyoto Prize.

The Kyoto Prize is an international award established by Japan’s Inamori Foundation to honour outstanding contributions to science, technology, culture and the arts. Goodall received it for her influential work on chimpanzees and her contribution to understanding animal behaviour and human-animal relationships.

Her recognition reflected more than a single discovery. Beginning in 1960, Goodall conducted groundbreaking field research at Gombe Stream National Park, documenting chimpanzee tool use, hunting, communication, social relationships and emotional behaviour. Her observations helped reshape scientific views of the boundary between humans and other animals.

The Kyoto Prize is distinct from the Blue Planet Prize, the Japan Prize and Japan’s Order of Culture. Goodall received many other international honours later, including the Tyler Prize, the Templeton Prize and the Presidential Medal of Freedom, but the 1990 Japanese award named in this question was the Kyoto Prize.
