The article discusses amicable settlements within the African human rights system, and analyses Government of Malawi v Institute for Human Rights and Development in Africa - the first amicable settlement dealt by the African Children's Committee. Some thematic reflections are proffered relating to the definition of a child, child marriage, the notion of 'serious and massive violations' of children's rights, reparations, the mandate to initiate an amicable settlement, and the follow-up to the amicable settlement reached.
