Impact Indicators. “Team-network has better understanding of the methodology used to provide comprehensive psychological support” “Further strengthening of the team-network” The specialized section of the web site and the discussion group have continued to strengthen the team-network by facilitating regular communication and an exchange of ideas and information. Members of the team-network are better able to expand their knowledge about psychological care for torture victims in the Inter-American System because of the access they now have to the material displayed in the specialized section of the web site. Means of verification: • 5 messages posted to the discussion group from July to September 2004 • personalized e-mail for members of the team-network
Impact Indicators. “Improvement in the quality of the psychological support provided to victims of torture with hearings before the bodies of the Inter-American System” “Victims more aware of the importance of their presenting their case before the Inter- American System” “More and better-quality documentation on practices for supporting victims of torture” “Contributions to the methodology for providing comprehensive psychological support” The work with these two new cases taught very important lessons that will enrich project methods for comprehensive psychological care of victims and for documenting these practices. The most significant lesson is the importance of adopting a flexible approach to assigning specialists, based on the particular needs of each case. Because of this flexibility, the project successfully met its basic objectives of high-quality care for victims and an effective legal strategy for advocacy with the bodies of the System. The flexible approach proved to be an innovative, educational experience. Both in the hearings and in personal communications, the victims recognized how important it was for themselves and their families to have appealed to the Inter-American System and stressed that their appearance and their cases in general would have important implications for their societies. Means of verification: • A press release from the Court, dated June 25th 2004, reporting that hearings on the case Tibi vs. Ecuador had been set for July 7th and 8th , 2004 • A press release from the Court, issued on October 1st , 2004, reporting that public hearings had been held on the case Xxxxxxx Sisters vs. El Salvador • An evaluation interview with the mother of Xxxxxx Xxxx'x daughters (Xxxx vs. Ecuador)

Impact Indicators. “Progress in the jurisprudence on torture of the Inter-American Commission and Court” “Progress in sensitizing these bodies to the psychological impact of torture” “Incorporation of psychosocial reparations for victims or their relatives into the recommendations and judgments issued by the bodies of the Inter-American System” The progress of these indicators can be measured over the medium term in judgments and recommendations by the protection bodies, and over the short term, in the granting of hearings for cases covered by the project. During 2004, the Inter-American Court granted hearings on four project cases over the course of two sessions; this reveals the Court's interest in the issue and demonstrates that both the commissioners and the judges are aware of the project and open to it.

Impact Indicators. An impact is the long-term effect on the stakeholders, institutions and environment resulting from the policies, programmes or project intervention. An impact can be positive, negative, intended or unintended. In both countries, impact of policy development is still weak. The integration of energy issues in national development plans is not taken into consideration. The lack of rural energy agencies or rural electrification programs, particularly of the government is evidence of a weak impact of the energy policies formulated. Resources need to be set aside, and systematised data sets need to be developed for the government and non government stakeholders to work together to gain a positive impact.
