An atmosphere of distrust can be a very toxic and distructive environment, destroying many years of efforts in a rather short time. As such it is useful to reflect about this and see ways on how to get out of this spiral. Many approaches contain:

1. Don’t delude yourself.
2. Ask for people’s stories.
3. Create low-risk opportunities for interaction.
4. Signal your commitment through action.
5. Pay closer attention to others’ efforts to change.
