The QPASTT Logo
The QPASTT logo portrays the recovery process from torture and trauma:
 |
the rock on which the tree is growing represents the hardship survivors have experienced, both
prior and sometimes after migration
the tree represents the process of regrowth for the individual, families and communities. This is
initially very painful but often culminates with flowering again in a new environment
the branches of the tree are reaching out and re-connecting with others, which in turn, if there is a positive response,
feeds the tree’s growth
|
Overall, despite the hardships survivors of torture and trauma have experienced they have the resilience to
blossom again. QPASTT facilitates this process to be less painful and more successful.
