6 7. That the facts presented by the Commission in this case reveal prima facie a threat to the lives and safety of the members of the communities comprising the Community Council of the Jiguamiandó and the families of the Curbaradó. The standard for prima facie evaluation of a case and the application of presumptions faced with the need for protection have led the Court to order provisional measures on several occasions1. 8. That the Inter-American Commission has adopted precautionary measures that have not produced the required effects2 and, to the contrary, recent events suggest that the members of the Communities are at grave risk. 9. That, even though, on other occasions, the Court has considered it essential to specify the persons who run the risk of suffering irreparable damage in order to grant measures of protection3, it has subsequently ordered the protection of a number of persons who had not been named previously, but who could be identified and verified and who were in a situation of grave danger because they belonged to a community4. In this case, as indicated by the Commission, it is evident that the communities comprising the Community Council of the Jiguamiandó and the families of the Curbaradó, made up of approximately 2,125 persons, forming 515 families, constitute an organized community, situated in a specific geographical location in the municipality of Carmen del Darién, Department of Chocó, whose members can be identified and specified and who, because they form part of the said community, are all in a situation of equal risk of suffering acts of aggression against their safety and lives, as well as being forcibly displaced from their territory, a situation that prevents them from exploiting the natural resources necessary for their subsistence. Accordingly, this Court considers that it is appropriate to order provisional measures of protection for the members of the communities composed of the Community Council of the Jiguamiandó and the families of the Curbaradó that encompass all the members of the said communities. 1 Cf., inter alia, The Urso Branco Prison case.
