Information comes in various forms: oral testimony, documents, video material, photographs, personal observations and satellite images.33 In particular. Human Rights Officers should map out the most relevant sources of information that would contribute to a gender analysis. Besides giving their own account of the events under investigation, these actors might be willing to assist the investigation by providing relevant documentation, reports and information gathered on the ground and serve as intermediaries to contact other victims, witnesses or sources. While many of these documents may have been gathered in the preparation phase, additional documentation may surface or become known through interaction with different actors at the local level when gender-sensitive questions are asked. At the same time, it is important not to make assumptions about a victim's needs or condition based on stereotypical views. For example, it should not be assumed that all victims of sexual violence would find the process of recounting their experience traumatizing.
