Client’s registration KRCT has developed a valuable database that contains all information relevant to torture-related psychological consequences. When clients register, their full record (comprising intake, progress, end of treatment and other details) is entered into the database. The gathered information serves the needs of research and analysis, as well as publishing purposes, and therefore goes beyond the individual use for the benefit of torture survivors in general.
