Social conditions: Environmental and societal factors that contribute to conflict and unrest within communities. These include issues such as discrimination, social exclusion, and inequality that create a context where violence can emerge and persist.
Cycle of violence: A repeating pattern of violent acts triggered by previous incidents, which sustains ongoing conflict. This pattern continues because the underlying social issues remain unresolved, leading to repeated acts of violence.
Discrimination: Unfair treatment of individuals based on race, ethnicity, or other social characteristics. Discrimination fosters frustration and resentment among marginalized groups, increasing the likelihood of conflict.
