The care center

Without claiming to "cure" torture and the after-effects of political violence, the Primo Levi Center offers multidisciplinary care (medical, psychological, physiotherapeutic, as well as social and legal), if necessary with an interpreter, to bring physical and psychological well-being to its patients. To live finally and not just survive.

The Primo levi center

The suffering, often invisible, produced by torture is complex and long-lasting. They are difficult to express by people who have survived humiliating treatments aimed at destroying them as human beings. Based on the experience gained in supporting refugees in France, the Primo Levi Centre intends to tirelessly testify to the effects of torture. It is from this ambition that the choice of the name Primo Levi was born, for its symbolic value, synonymous with the rejection of inhuman, cruel and degrading treatment.
