TFA is composed of a global secretariat hosted by the World Economic Forum (WEF), and three regional coordination hubs, one of which is TFA Latin America, hosted by The Nature Conservancy in Brazil.

The private soft commodity sector is critical to eliminate tropical deforestation and natural ecosystem conversion, therefore TFA aims for responsible and transparent actions from farm to market (global and domestic) actors in addressing enabling conditions and systemic causes to eliminate deforestation and conversion from supply chains, through collaborative actions and increased partnerships that ensure just transition to sustainable supply where costs are shared across actors.
