Seeds for Resilience website

Food security is one of the main global challenges for the coming decades. Climate change and loss of crop diversity due to increased dependence on commercial seed production are its biggest threats.

We are all interconnected and depending on food production that relies on our planets’ biodiversity. More than ever, our food production systems require not only a wide range of plant varieties resistant to pests and diseases, but also varieties that are capable of adapting to shifting conditions of increased salinity, drought and flooding, and more irregular weather patterns in general.

This website brings together an array of resources on farmer-managed seed systems, Based on the legacy of the Sowing Diversity=Harvesting Security program that improved access and use of crop diversity and advanced us towards a more equal food production systems.
