How Syrians Saved an Ancient Seedbank From Civil War

*"Genebanks are not isolated treasure troves and shouldn’t be treated as
such. Their power comes from the connections between them, and the
worldwide network of genetic resources those connections create."*

An encouraging and inspiring story from war-torn Syria, about heroic
efforts to save the country's ancient varieties of seeds, dating back to
the dawn of agriculture.
