About iMMO
Become a rapporteur at iMMO

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.
