During the week at CCF (see previous post), Polytechnic students in Nature Conservation were engaged in a conflict resolution exercise--based on a real-world human/wildlife conflict. Namibia is full of such conflicts...elephants killing people, elephants destroying crops, predators killing livestock, etc.
When asked about how to solve a problem presented to students--in which two people were engaged in an argument relating to the conflict--one of the students, Atti, replied: "The two people should just meet under a tree. That is how we solve our problems here."
Sounds good to me. Perfectly good use of a shade tree.
