Join the movement for community-led
development in the coffee sector!
Through an 18-month Community-Led Development (CLD) Incubator program, we build relationships with local leaders in coffee-growing regions, cultivate their project design and management skills, and foster the development of their farming enterprises. Our work allows global communities to combat intergenerational poverty and marginalization in the coffee sector on their own terms, and according to their own visions for change.
Areas of Impact
Incubator participants have implemented community projects in the following areas:
Transformative
Infrastructure
Education
Food
Sovereignty
Alternative
Income
Clean Water,
Carbon & Climate
Gender
Equity
“I have felt very supported by TCC and the entire group; knowing that there are more people in the world who want to improve the lives of coffee growers makes me feel that we are not alone in this task. Meeting the TCC team and the rest of the Incubator participants gave me a lot of strength.”

Alumni Network
Our newest program, the TCC Alumni Network, offers Community-Led Development Incubator alumni the opportunity to foster ongoing, long-term relationships with both our organization and other past and present Incubator participants. The TCC Alumni Network also offers alumni the opportunity to promote their community initiatives, expand their business networks, continue learning, and work together to create more opportunities and engagement with other coffee industry professionals.
Alumni Network Sponsorship Deck“What differentiates TCC from other organizations is they support community proposals and initiatives, they support ideas that come from us, with total freedom for change. TCC’s vision is not to impose from the outside but rather to support ideas coming from the community. We feel happy and we enjoyed working this way.”
