14 the police units, such as traffic, migrations, human trafficking, antinarcotics, and that, during the year 2010, the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights will be developing a curricular grid on human rights for the National Police and the Armed Forces. Finally, it made reference to the fact that in the month of August two training processes, on human mobility and on human rights, will be starting, both for the National Police and for the Armed Forces detailed to the northern frontier. 55. That, as per the information provided by the State regarding the permanent human rights education programs for the members of the National Police, the Court sets great store by the fact that at the planning phase of the human rights training module it would have been held in consideration to start all the workshops – regardless of their specific subject – by imparting introductory notions on human rights and their general characteristics, as well as instruction on police legislation, the use of force and the responsibilities of the Police regarding civil society in a Constitutional State under the Rule of Law. This latter action constitutes a form of reparation, for according to what the State expressed, it fostered that, at least during the year 2008, during its implementation phase, about 2,383 police personnel and police academy graduates holding the rank of Second Lieutenants acquired a general knowledge about human rights and the legitimate use of force during the states of exception. 56. That even when it was but a learning mechanism exclusively imparted to 400 members of the police force in the Province of Esmeraldas, the Court also observes that among the contents programmed for the workshop called “human rights when facing citizen security” justification, setting objectives, methodology, scheduling and appointing those in charge were included, as well as the incorporation of the subject relating to which rights could be limited during the states of exception, and of the international humanitarian law contents regarding respect and protection of persons. Such focused and hands on instruction prevents repetition of behaviors similar to those having taken place in the instant case, such as the excessive use of physical force during states of exception by members of the National Police. 57. That, on the other hand, the Court notes that the activity called “Specialized Course on Human Rights and Democracy: A standpoint from the Inter-American System”, addressing the Armed Forces, although it bears on the compliance with the Judgment, it does so to a lesser extent, for it was imparted only once. In its turn, the training module to be designed by the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights in the framework of an interinstitutional cooperation agreement is favorably assessed by the Court as a way to start implementing human rights education programs inside the Armed Forces of Ecuador. Likewise, the Tribunal reminds the State that human rights education with a particular emphasis on the legitimate use of force and states of exception is essential to generate guarantees that extrajudicial executions such as the ones that took place in the instant case will not be repeated. 58. That in the course of the hearing the State pointed out it had omitted to inform that during the year 2008 human rights training module for judges was designed and has already been imparted to 80 of them in their capacity as trainers. Such module was created in coordination with the judicial school of the Consejo de la Judicatura [Council for the Bench] and, after having introduced some changes, it will be delivered to this last resort to be applied on a permanent basis. 59. That as regards prosecutors training, during the year 2008 a curricular grid was designed in order to be able to implement this year the Diploma on “gender, justice and human rights”, for prosecutors, defenders and judges, wherein it is contemplated to include a module relating to the Inter-American Human Rights System.
