What is the Svalbard Global Seed Vault?
Without diversity in agriculture, our society is on the verge of mass starvation due to climate change. Unlike other seedbanks, Svalbard does not only aim to preserve a variety of plant species from the region, but from around the world.
When the world becomes a catastrophic wasteland, as our final attempt, we will use the seeds in Svalbard as a foundation to rebuild our agriculture, our society and our species. The Svalbard Global Seed Vault is an archetypal vault with architectural significance that was built to last.
