Culture: an essential component of human development.

The transformative power of culture for social inclusion, resilience and development is increasingly recognized as a key enabler, since it provides sustainable solutions to local and global challenges.

INTERCULTURAL STUDIES IN ENGLISH II

The Seed Guardians of Quito

Culture has an obvious correlation with our environmental footprint. Several traditional occupations and crafts draw on local knowledge of ecosystem management, natural resource extraction and local materials. As many of them require lower levels of technology, energy, and investment, they help to generate sustainable livelihoods and contribute to green economies. Traditional knowledge related to the preservation of existing genetic resources, including the genetic diversity of seeds, should be recognized and maintained, and the fair sharing of the relevant benefits should be promoted. Farmers in Ecuador rarely use traditional seed these days. Instead, they mostly plant industrial varieties not native to Latin America. The Seed Guardians Network is trying to stop old seeds from disappearing.
