To identify a problem or a symptom you can use the problem tree. The leaves and the crown are the symptoms of a problem - things that we as people often notice. The tree trunk keeps the problem alive, and it's about how our society works and what people do. The roots, that are difficult to see, are the basis of the problem and that is what’s causing the symptoms. We need to focus on the roots to counteract structural violence and gain positive peace.
