Introduction

Linecurve pink 2x

Ts’ana Talana Community, located in the mountainous regions of Lesotho, is a vibrant rural community distinguished by its strong cultural heritage, agricultural practices, and communal way of life. The residents of Ts’ana Talana primarily engage in subsistence farming, livestock rearing, and small-scale trade, which form the backbone of their local economy. Social cohesion is reinforced through extended family networks, traditional leadership structures, and active participation in community events, schools, and churches, all of which play a pivotal role in shaping the identity and resilience of the community.

The Ts’ana Talana Community Council, designated as a Council Centre of Excellence (COE), serves as a cornerstone of local governance and development. Operating within Lesotho’s decentralized governance framework, the council emphasizes effective service delivery, participatory decision-making, and transparent management of resources. As a COE, the council is committed to promoting gender equality, good governance, and sustainable community development. Through strategic planning and collaboration with government agencies, NGOs, and development partners, the Ts’ana Talana Council COE works to improve livelihoods, strengthen infrastructure, and enhance the overall well-being of its residents.
