affected by displacement are entitled to protection and humanitarian assistance and special measures should be taken to protect them from child marriage.42 Reparation to victims [59] States Parties are obliged to provide adequate, effective and comprehensive reparation to the victims of child marriage. Where acts and omissions are attributable to the State, States Parties should provide reparation that includes compensation, satisfaction and guarantees of non-repetition as those terms are endorsed in General Comment Number 4 issued by the Commission.43 However, States Parties are obliged to provide all victims of child marriage reparation in at least the forms of restitution and rehabilitation.44Measures of restitution should be aimed at returning victims to the position they were in before and may include restoration of status or citizenship and rights to land or property. As part of their restitution efforts, States Parties must ensure that girls who are pregnant and girls who have had children are allowed 42 Article 32 of the African Children’s Charter. 43 As pronounced by the Commission in General Comment Number 4, compensation should be awarded to compensate for economically assessable damage and includes reimbursement of medical expenses, compensation for disabilities and any other material, non-material or other harms suffered. Satisfaction and the right to truth involves the State acknowledging its responsibility for the impact and violations involved in child marriages and should be aimed at ending continued violation of the prohibition, verification of facts and full and public disclosure. Guarantees of non-repetition involve taking measures to combat impunity and can be linked to clearer instructions, guidelines and policies, training of law enforcement and other public officials, the establishment of independent investigative mechanisms and appropriate forms of accountability. 44 General Comment No. 4 of the African Commission on the Right to Regress for Victims of Torture and Other Cruel, inhuman or Degrading Punishment or Treatment (Article 5). 30
