TSF carries out projects and holds events to facilitate impact generation in collaboration with Tokyo-based national organisations and various stakeholders. In particular, TSF works in collaboration with areas based at IGES headquarters including Biodiversity and Forests, the City Taskforce and the Integrated Sustainability Centre (ISC). TSF also works closely with the IPBES Technical Support Unit for the Assessment of Invasive Alien Species (TSU-IAS) and ICLEI Japan, both of which share office space with TSF.
