The Turkish Minister of Justice, in a major effort to ensure better protection of children and vulnerable groups, in 2017 launched an ambitious plan of setting up and building specially designed Judicial Interview Rooms. This planned improvement is the final step in a fruitful collaboration between the EU, UNICEF, and the Turkish Ministry of Justice.
Numerous research shows that victims from vulnerable groups such as children or victims of sexual assault can live the complexity of judicial process as a new form of aggression that creates new trauma. This phenomenon is called secondary victimisation.
