Coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world. Yet, the coffee industry faces significant social, economic, and environmental sustainability challenges. Through our coffee certification program, tailored supply chain services, advocacy, and landscape management, the Rainforest Alliance is working towards a more sustainable coffee sector.
This page features information about the Rainforest Alliance's work in coffee and links to all our coffee-related content and resources.
We work with farmers and companies in the coffee supply chain, governments, civil society, and millions of individuals to protect forests and biodiversity, act on climate change, and promote the rights and improve the livelihoods of rural people. Together we can change the way the world produces and consumes coffee and create a world where people and nature thrive together.
We support coffee farmers by providing training in climate-smart and regenerative growing practices that boost yields and incomes; by connecting them with responsible markets; and by promoting the human rights of those working in the coffee sector.
