Medical assessment of torture victims
iMMO provides forensic medical assessments for suspected victims of torture and inhumane treatment, particularly in asylum proceedings or human trafficking cases.
Are you a lawyer or counselor and do you suspect that your client is a victim of torture or other extreme (sexual) violence? If so, you can request a medical assessment by iMMO.
About iMMO
Become a rapporteur at iMMO
iMMO is grateful for the support of professionals – especially medics and psychologists/psychiatrists – who have the required knowledge and expertise and are willing to volunteer.
Rapporteurs, in compliance with procedures, formats and protocols applicable within iMMO, perform diagnostics independently, based on their own professional responsibility. They report their findings to the iMMO medical staff who review the reports.
A rapporteur has education and experience relevant to conducting investigations. He/she should be willing to acquire specific knowledge and skills and also be willing to learn from peer reviews. Rapporteurs receive in-house training in the use of the Istanbul Protocol.
