Support to victims of torture

Those who survived have urgent and specific needs. Medical care, including psychological attention, comes first to mind. They also often need social support, including for the family's basic needs, as it might be the breadwinner who is the victim. When the victim’s life remains at risk, relocation to a safe haven is the only solution - inside or outside the country. Help must be swift and adapted to each specific situation. But most of the time, victims are poor, marginalized, and voiceless. 

They don’t know about centres providing specialized care or don’t have the financial resources to access them. Their chances of getting legal redress for the crime committed against them are even slimmer.
