With this story map, we highlight the key achievements of our MainPotRe project – accomplishments made possible through transnational collaboration, knowledge exchange, and the development of joint solutions.
Technical details

The map takes you through our shared journey: from developing policy recommendations that make conservation and local seed potato varieties more accessible and affordable, to designing tools for distributing materials from gene banks, and testing new strategies for marketing local varieties.
A strong emphasis was also placed on community building, where pride in cultural and culinary traditions became a driving force for cherishing local potato varieties. This not only strengthened regional identity but also created a lasting impact on communities. Equally important, we emphasised the importance of using healthy seed potatoes, not only for professional farmers but also for hobby gardeners, as a cornerstone of sustainable and resilient potato cultivation.
We invite you to explore the story map and discover how these efforts came together to strengthen potato diversity and community resilience across the region.
