About UsWelcome to the website of the Ecological Movement “Okvir života”
We are the first community seed bank in Serbia.
Our mission is to connect local communities with science, and agriculture with nature – fostering a more sustainable and fair food production system, as well as responsible management of natural resources.
We achieve this through community-based initiatives, citizen science approach and agroecological practices. Through our programs – Community Seed Bank and Nature Keepers we promote a professional and responsible approach toward one of our country’s most vital resources.
