MediCapt is a mobile phone application developed by Physicians for Human
Rights (PHR) to collect evidence of sexual violence in conflict areas. In
2013 it won an award for atrocity prevention. [1] The technology was field
tested by physicians in Democratic Republic of Congo, where there is
military violence in remote areas, and where WIFI and electrical power
connections can be unreliable. [2][3]
In 2017, members of an organized militia in the DRC were put on trial for
kidnapping, sexually assaulting, and mutilating 46 children, some as young
as 8 months old. Physicians for Human Rights provided technical support for
obtaining forensic evidence for the trial. Parents of the children
testified from behind a screen, covered from head to toe, and using voice
modification technology. [4] In December 2017, the court convicted 12
militia members, including a member of parliament. [5]
