Welcome to TLO

The Tribal Liaison Office (TLO) is an Afghan non-governmental organization aiming at improving local governance, stability and security in the Southeast and South of Afghanistan.

TLO is in the unique position to have open and regular dialogue with both tribal and community leaders throughout the Southeast (and increasingly in the South). Systematic and institutionalized engagement with tribal structures, community leaders and civil society organizations has provided a focal point from which to interact with the Afghan government and the international community.

On this basis TLO provides assistance to traditional tribal structures and other representative bodies aiming at formally integrating them into the peace and reconstruction process in Afghanistan.

TLO works in the areas of Research and Analysis, Conflict Resolution and Mediation, and Livelihood Improvement Initiatives.
