Who are we

Below we’ve listed the present TFF Associates and the former Associates since 1986 as well as the Board members and founders.
Find their writings in the 1997-2011 archive and in the 2012-2017 archive.

These are the 142 personalities who have made TFF what it is today.

The founders are deeply grateful to each and everyone for the privilege and joy it is to work with such a group which is not only one of the finest and most experienced in the global community of peace-makers but also people whom we allow ourselves to call friends. Special thanks to those who have also served as Board members.

Former TFF Associates
TFF remains grateful to Associates who, since 1986, have contributed to making the Foundation what it is today. Some have gone into other fields, some are not so productive due to age and health, while others have taken up positions not compatible with free writing. And some have passed away.
All of them have had multi-year engagements with us, remain friends and can still publish their articles with us if they like; we just don’t expect them to be active anymore in this field.
