Documenting Torture
We use our health based expertise to promote effective documentation of torture and ill-treatment in accordance with the Istanbul Protocol, produce reliable medical evidence of torture so victims can claim reparation and rehabilitation, enhance the understanding of what constitutes torture and ensure that judicial and administrative procedures accommodate the specific needs of torture victims. We work closely with the membership and leading experts in the field of forensic documentation of torture to support individual cases before national, regional and international courts and monitoring mechanisms.
