Abstract

Over the last decade, more than 50 rehabilitation centres for torture survivors have been established around the world. Some of these centres have recognized that a documentation centre, similar to the one at IRCT in Copenhagen, should be part of their structure. Based on an increasing demand for information from abroad, IRCT has decided to contribute to the establishment of new documentation centres around the world.
