The Commonwealth Forestry Association (CFA) is the world's longest established international association for those interested and working with trees and forests, tracing its history back to 1921. Today it unites foresters, scientists, students, NGOs and policy makers throughout the world in a unique international network that provides professional support to its members and forms a key element of civil society.
