The objective of this design audit was to select an existing organization with a strong mandate in CSR and focus on the positive outcomes of the organization while identifying new opportunities to strengthen their model. This design audit looks at the Svalbard Global Seed Vault; the largest seed bank in the world acting as a safeguard for most of the world's genetic crop material; and proposes a new framework for preserving the cultural knowledge embedded within these seeds as a way to maximize their genetic potential.
