victims? How is information about the services disseminated to ensure that they reach target groups? Are gender specific forms of torture recognized as such and addressed in the scope of services offered? 8. When delivering rehabilitation services or monitoring and evaluating current services, consider whether rehabilitation services are of an appropriate standard. For example, are medical ethics followed, are vulnerable victims or victims of specific offences, such as gender-specific torture practices, adequately supported and are monitoring and evaluation processes in place? 9. How is the sustainability and continued development of rehabilitation services ensured by the state? Is specialized training provided to professional bodies (medical, psychological, legal, public-sector professionals) that may have first contact with torture victims? Is the state providing adequate funding in its regular budgets to allow torture rehabilitation services to function in a stable manner? Are there emergency funding sources available to rehabilitation services that experience financial difficulties? Does the state fund or support research initiatives to encourage the continued development of effective rehabilitation methods? 10. Does the state collect data on numbers of torture victims, their needs and the rehabilitation services available to them?
