The Forest and Farm Facility (FFF) works directly with producer organizations to help them become stronger, amplify their potential and connect with each other. Since 2012, FFF has worked in 10 countries to directly strengthen almost 1,000 groups that range in size from local coffee growers’ organizations to international alliances. Its work, which also involves governments, helps to promote sustainable development through management of farm land and forests that produce food, livelihoods, medicine, construction materials and energy. It also helps producer groups find new markets and strengthen their members’ business capabilities. FFF is a partnership between FAO, the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED), the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), and AgriCord.
