climate change is one of the most serious threats facing our world. and it is not just a threat to the environment. it is also a threat to our national security, to global security, to poverty eradication and to economic prosperity.
and we must agree a global deal in paris ne_t year. we simply cannot put this off any longer.
and i pay tribute to secretary general ban for bringing everyone together here today and forputting real focus on this issue.
now my country, the united kingdom, is playing its part.
in fact, it was margaret thatcher who was one of the first world leaders to demand action onclimate change, right here at the united nations 25 years ago.
now since then, the uk has cut greenhouse gas emissions by one quarter. we have createdthe world’s first climate change act. and as prime minister, i pledged that the government ilead would be the greenest government ever. and i believe we’ve kept that promise.
we’ve more than doubled our capacity in renewable electricity in the last 4 years alone. wenow have enough solar to power almost a million uk homes. we have the world’s leadingfinancial centre in carbon trading. and we have established the world’s first green investmentbank. we’ve invested £1 billion in carbon capture and storage. and we’ve said no to any newcoal without carbon capture and storage. we are investing in all forms of lower carbon energyincluding shale gas and nuclear, with the first new nuclear plant coming on stream for ageneration.
now, as a result of all that we are doing, we are on track to cut emissions by 80 per cent by2050. and we are playing our role internationally as well, providing nearly £4 billion of climatefinance over 5 years as part of our commitment to spend 0.7 per cent of our gross nationalincome on aid. and we are one of the only countries in the advanced world to do that and tomeet our promises.
we now need the whole world though to step up to deliver a new, ambitious, global dealwhich keeps the 2 degree goal within reach. i’ll be pushing european union leaders to come toparis with an offer to cut emissions by at least 40 per cent by 2030.
we know from copenhagen that we are not just going to turn up in paris and reach a deal. weneed to work hard now to raise the level of ambition and to work through the difficult issues.to achieve a deal we need all countries, all countries to make commitments to reduceemissions. our agreement has to be legally binding, with proper rules and targets to hold eachother to account.
we must provide support to those who need it, particularly the poorest and most vulnerable.it is completely unrealistic to e_pect developing countries to forgo the high carbon route togrowth that so many western countries enjoyed, unless we support them to achieve greengrowth. now, if we get this right there need not be a trade-off between economic growth andreducing carbon emissions.
we need to give business the certainty it needs to invest in low carbon. that means fightingagainst the economically and environmentally perverse fossil fuel subsidies which distort freemarkets and rip off ta_payers. it means championing green free trade, slashing tariffs on thingslike solar panels. and it means giving business the fle_ibility to pick the right technologies fortheir needs.
in short we need a framework built on green growth not green tape.
as political leaders we have a duty to think long-term. when offered clear scientific advice, weshould listen to it. when faced with risks, we should insure against them. and when presentedwith an opportunity to safeguard the long-term future of our planet and our people, weshould seize it.
so i would implore everyone to seize this opportunity over the coming year. countries likethe united kingdom have taken the steps necessary. we’ve legislated. we’ve acted. we’veinvested. and i urge other countries to take the steps that they need to as well so we can reachthis historic deal.
thank you.

mr. secretary-general, thank you for bringing us together today to address an urgent threatto the people of west africa, but also a potential threat to the world. dr. chan, heads of stateand government, especially our african partners, ladies and gentlemen: as we gather heretoday, the people of liberia and sierra leone and guinea are in crisis. as secretary-general banand dr. chan have already indicated, the ebola virus is spreading at alarming speed.thousands of men, women and children have died. thousands more are infected. ifunchecked, this epidemic could kill hundreds of thousands of people in the coming months.hundreds of thousands.
ebola is a horrific disease. it’s wiping out entire families. it has turned simple acts of love andcomfort and kindness -- like holding a sick friend’s hand, or embracing a dying child -- intopotentially fatal acts. if ever there were a public health emergency deserving an urgent,strong and coordinated international response, this is it.
but this is also more than a health crisis. this is a growing threat to regional and globalsecurity. in liberia, in guinea, in sierra leone, public health systems have collapsed. economicgrowth is slowing dramatically. if this epidemic is not stopped, this disease could cause ahumanitarian catastrophe across the region. and in an era where regional crises can quicklybecome global threats, stopping ebola is in the interest of all of us.
the courageous men and women fighting on the front lines of this disease have told us whatthey need. they need more beds, they need more supplies, they need more health workers, andthey need all of this as fast as possible. right now, patients are being left to die in the streetsbecause there’s nowhere to put them and there’s nobody to help them. one health worker insierra leone compared fighting this outbreak to “fighting a forest fire with spray bottles.” butwith our help, they can put out the blaze.
last week, i visited the centers for disease control and prevention, which is mounting thelargest international response in its history. i said that the world could count on america tolead, and that we will provide the capabilities that only we have, and mobilize the world the waywe have done in the past in crises of similar magnitude. and i announced that, in additionto the civilian response, the united states would establish a military command in liberia tosupport civilian efforts across the region.
today, that command is up and it is running. our commander is on the ground in monrovia,and our teams are working as fast as they can to move in personnel, equipment and supplies.we’re working with senegal to stand up an air bridge to get health workers and medicalsupplies into west africa faster. we’re setting up a field hospital, which will be staffed bypersonnel from the u.s. public health service, and a training facility, where we’re gettingready to train thousands of health workers from around the world. we’re distributing suppliesand information kits to hundreds of thousands of families so they can better protectthemselves. and together with our partners, we’ll quickly build new treatment units acrossliberia, guinea and sierra leone, where thousands will be able to receive care.
meanwhile, in just the past week, more countries and organizations have stepped up theirefforts -- and so has the united nations. mr. secretary-general, the new un mission for ebolaemergency response that you announced last week will bring all of the u.n.’s resources tobear in fighting the epidemic. we thank you for your leadership.
so this is all progress, and it is encouraging. but i want us to be clear: we are not moving fastenough. we are not doing enough. right now, everybody has the best of intentions, but peopleare not putting in the kinds of resources that are necessary to put a stop to this epidemic.there is still a significant gap between where we are and where we need to be. we know frome_perience that the response to an outbreak of this magnitude has to be fast and it has to besustained. it’s a marathon, but you have to run it like a sprint. and that’s only possible ifeverybody chips in, if every nation and every organization takes this seriously. everybody herehas to do more.
international organizations have to move faster, and cut through red tape and mobilize partnerson the ground as only they can. more nations need to contribute critical assets andcapabilities -- whether it is air transport, or medical evacuation, or health care workers, orequipment, or treatment. more foundations can tap into the networks of support that theyhave, to raise funds and awareness. more businesses, especially those who already have apresence in the region, can quickly provide their own e_pertise and resources, from access tocritical supply chains to telecommunications. and more citizens -- of all nations -- can educatethemselves on this crisis, contribute to relief efforts, and call on their leaders to act. soeverybody can do something. that’s why we’re here today.
and even as we meet the urgent threat of ebola, it’s clear that our nations have to do more toprevent, detect and respond to future biological threats -- before they erupt into full-blowncrises. tomorrow, in washington, i’ll host 44 nations to advance our global health securityagenda, and we are interested in working with any country that shares this commitment.
just to emphasize this issue of speed again. when i was down at the cdc -- and perhaps thishas already been discussed, but i want to emphasize this -- the outbreak is such where at thispoint more people will die. but the slope of the curve, how fast we can arrest the spread ofthis disease, how quickly we can contain it is within our control. and if we move fast, even ifimperfectly, then that could mean the difference between 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 deathsversus hundreds of thousands or even a million deaths. so this is not one where there should bea lot of wrangling and people waiting to see who else is doing what. everybody has got to movefast in order for us to make a difference. and if we do, we’ll save hundreds of thousands of lives.
stopping ebola is a priority for the united states. i’ve said that this is as important a nationalsecurity priority for my team as anything else that’s out there. we’ll do our part. we willcontinue to lead, but this has to be a priority for everybody else. we cannot do this alone. wedon’t have the capacity to do all of this by ourselves. we don’t have enough health workers byourselves. we can build the infrastructure and the architecture to get help in, but we’re goingto need others to contribute.
to my fellow leaders from liberia, sierra leone and guinea, to the people of west africa, to theheroic health workers who are on the ground as we speak, in some cases, putting themselvesat risk -- i want you to know that you are not alone. we’re working urgently to get you the helpyou need. and we will not stop, we will not relent until we halt this epidemic once and for all.
so i want to thank all of you for the efforts that are made. but i hope that i’m properlycommunicating a sense of urgency here. do not stand by, thinking that somehow, because ofwhat we’ve done, that it’s taken care of. it’s not. and if we don’t take care of this now we aregoing to see fallout effects and secondary effects from this that will have ramifications for a longtime, above and beyond the lives that will have been lost.
i urge all of you, particularly those who have direct access to your heads of state, to make surethat they are making this a top priority in the ne_t several weeks and months.
thank you very much.

your e_cellency, mr. maurizio enrico luigi serra, permanent representative of italy to the united nations office in geneva;e_cellencies,distinguished human rights officials,ladies and gentlemen,
i thank the european union and the italian government for this commemoration of the worldday against the death penalty.
since the general assembly adopted its first resolution on a moratorium seven years ago,more states acknowledge that the death penalty undermines human dignity. it fails todeter crimes more than other punishments. abolition – or at least a moratorium – contributesto human rights.
the taking of life is too irreversible for one person to inflict on another.
we must continue arguing strongly that the death penalty is unjust and incompatible withfundamental human rights.
i urge leaders where the death penalty still is used to legally commute or pardon deathsentences – and to impose moratoriums on e_ecutions.
the death penalty has no place in the 21st century.
i call on states that have not yet done so to ratify the second optional protocol of theinternational covenant on civil and political rights aiming at abolition of the death penalty.
i hope to see many more ratifications during the protocol’s 25th anniversary this year.
the united nations will continue working to end this cruel punishment.

the number of forcibly displaced people in the world continues to rise. there are now more than 45 million refugees and internally displaced people – the highest level in nearly 20 years. last year alone, someone was forced to abandon their home every four seconds.
世界上被强迫流离失所者的人数持续增加。目前有4 500多万难民和境内流离失所者——这是近20年来的最高数字。仅在去年,每四秒钟就有一人被迫离开自己的家园。
war remains the dominant cause, with the crisis in syria a leading instance of major displacement. more than half of all refugees listed in a new report by the un high commissioner for refugees come from just five war-affected countries: afghanistan, somalia, iraq, syria and sudan. major new displacements have also been occurring in mali and the democratic republic of the congo.
战争仍是主要原因,而叙利亚危机是大规模流离失所的一个主要实例。仅五个受战争影响国家的难民就占了联合国难民事务高级专员新的报告中所列全部难民的一半以上;这五个国家是:阿富汗、索马里、伊拉克、叙利亚和苏丹。大量新的流离失所现象也已在马里和刚果民主共和国出现。
figures give only a glimpse of this enormous human tragedy. every day, conflict tears apart the lives of thousands of families. they may be forced to leave loved ones behind or become separated in the chaos of war. children suffer the most. nearly half of all refugees are below age 18, and a growing number are fleeing on their own.
数字只让人们看到了这一巨大人类悲剧的一瞥。每一天,冲突撕裂了数千个家庭。他们可能被迫离开亲人,也可能在战争的混乱局面中失散。儿童受苦最重。全部难民有近一半年龄不满18岁,越来越多的孩子自己逃离。
forced displacement also has a significant economic, social and, at times, political impact on the communities that provide shelter. there is a growing and deep imbalance in the burden of hosting refugees, with poor countries taking in the vast majority of the world’s uprooted people. developing countries host 81 per cent of the world’s refugees, compared to 70 per cent a decade ago.
强迫流离失所还对收容社区产生了重大的经济和社会影响,有时还产生了重大的政治影响。在收容难民的负担方面出现了日益严重的不平衡,穷国接收了世界上绝大多数流离失所者。发展中国家收容了世界难民中的81%,而十年前则为70%。
finding durable solutions for the displaced will require more solidarity and burden-sharing by the international community. on world refugee day, i call on the international community to intensify efforts to prevent and resolve conflicts, and to help achieve peace and security so that families can be reunited and refugees can return home.
要为流离失所者找到持久的解决办法,就需要国际社会更加团结一致,共同承受负担。在世界难民日,我呼吁国际社会加紧努力,预防和解决冲突,帮助实现和平与安全,以便使家庭能够团聚,难民能够返回家园。

all languages are linked through their origins and borrowing, but each is a unique source of meaning for understanding, writing and e_pressing reality.
从起源到后来的相互借鉴,所有语言都是相互联系的,但对于我们理解、记述与表现现实生活而言,每一种语言又都具有其独特性。
mother languages are special in providing the material with which the world is first voiced, the lens through which it is first understood. international mother language day is a moment to recognize their importance and to mobilise for multilingualism and linguistic diversity.
母语的特殊意义在于为我们提供了一种最初用话语表达的工具和认识这个世界的镜子。国际母语日,我们要认识到母语的重要性并努力促进多语言使用和语言多样性。
mother languages, along with linguistic diversity, matter for the identity of individuals. as sources of creativity and vehicles for cultural e_pression, they are also important for the health of societies. not least, languages are factors for development and growth. we know how important education in the mother language is for learning outcomes. mother language instruction is a powerful way to fight discrimination and reach out to marginalised populations. as wellsprings of knowledge, languages are also starting points for greater sustainability in development, for managing more harmoniously our relationship with the environment and change.
母语以及语言多样性与个人的身份认同息息相关。作为创造性的源泉和文化表达的载体,它们对于社会的健康也至关重要。语言还是促进发展和增长的要素。我们深知母语教育对学习成绩的重要性。母语教学是消除歧视和帮助边缘化人群的有效工具。作为知识的源泉,语言也是提高发展的可持续性以及更和谐地调整我们与环境之间的关系和管理变革的出发点。
multilingualism opens fabulous opportunities for the dialogue that is necessary to understanding and cooperation. mother languages live harmoniously with the acquisition of other languages. a plural linguistic space allows the wealth of diversity to put in common. it accelerates the e_change of knowledge and e_perience. this was one of the core themes of the 2024, international year for the rapprochement of cultures. building on the mother language, the learning of multiple languages must be a pillar of 21st century education.
多语言使用为理解与合作所必需的对话创造了绝佳的机会。母语与掌握其他语言并行不悖。语言多元化的环境让人们共享多样化的财富,促进知识与经验的交流。这是 2024 国际文化和睦年的核心主题。在母语的基础上进一步学习多种语言必须成为 21 世纪教育的一个支柱。
at the same time, we can do more to support the balanced development of translation, as a channel to open to all the great diversity of knowledge and e_perience throughout the world.
与此同时,我们要更加支持翻译事业的均衡发展,它是通向全世界丰富多彩的知识与经验宝库的一条途径。
the theme of the 2024 international mother language day concerns the use of information and communication technologies for safeguarding and promoting languages and linguistic diversity.
2024年国际母语日的主题是利用信息与传播技术保护和促进语言与语言多样性。
languages provide the software for information and communication technologies. these technologies are also a new frontier for promoting linguistic diversity. unesco is committed to promoting multilingualism on the internet. these goals guide unesco in its work with the internet corporation for assigned names and numbers.
语言是信息与传播技术的软件。这些技术也为促进语言多样性拓展了新的疆域。联合国教科文组织致力于推动互联网上多种语言的使用。教科文组织与互联网名称与数字地址分配机构的合作也是基于这种目的。
innovative technologies provide new ways also to follow, e_amine and learn languages. the success of the online edition of unesco’s atlas of the world’s languages in danger shows the power of the internet to track the state of languages and multilingualism, and to raise awareness with a global audience.
创新的技术还为我们观察、研究和学习语言提供了新的手段。教科文组织《世界濒危语言图谱》网络版的巨大成功展现了互联网在监测语言现状和多语言使用状况以及面向全球受众提高人们认识方面的强大力量。
information and communication technologies can be especially useful in promoting mother languages. we must harness the power of progress to protect diverse visions of the world and to promote all sources of knowledge and forms of e_pression. these are the threads that weave the tapestry of humanity’s story. the innovation, fle_ibility and social interaction that lie at the heart of new information and communication technologies can support these goals. on this international mother language day, let us pledge to work together in this direction.
信息与传播技术在倡导母语方面可发挥特别重要的作用。我们必须利用科技进步的力量,保护各种不同的世界观,促进各种来源的知识和表达形式。它们是编织人类历史挂毯的丝线。创新、灵活和社会交流,作为新的信息与传播技术的核心要素,有助于我们实现这些目标。值此国际母语日之际,让我们决心为此而共同努力。

thank you, helen clark, administrator of undp, for moderating this very important meeting.
i would like to thank the presidents of the affected african countries – the president of guinea,the president of liberia, and the president of sierra leone – and i would also like to thankpresident mugabe who is participating in his capacity as president of the african union.
and i would also like to thank dr. margaret chan, director general of the who for herleadership.
thank you all ministers and dignitaries who have taken such very valuable time to be with us,to be with the people of africa particularly affected by ebola.
i think we can overcome this one, and i think we are now overcoming it but we have to gountil the end, until we see the last patient cured and there will be no further cases.
i would also like to thank the world bank president, and the imf managing director and themany international and regional development banks, including the african development bankand the islamic development bank, and the european union.
it is a great honour to have you. thank you for accepting my invitation to participate and toshow your solidarity for the people affected by this ebola virus.
e_cellence, mesdames et messieurs,
merci de participer à cette conférence internationale sur le relèvement après l"ebola.
la tâche qui nous attend est immense: il s"agit de concrétiser nos promesses de solidaritéconcrete, tournés vers l"action.
je vous demande de vous joindre à moi pour apporter un soutien durable au_ populations despays touchés par l"ebola.
let me begin by thanking the many donors who have come together, along with governments,civil society organizations, national and international responders, development banks andfoundations, as part of a broad-based global coalition to support the nationally-led responseefforts.
i applaud the african union and its plan to convene an international conference on africa"sfight against ebola later this month in malabo.
i commend the african union for galvanizing african leaders, businesses and communities insolidarity with the affected countries. this regional unity has been essential to bringing theoutbreak under control – and will be critical to effective recovery. i commend the morethan 800 african volunteers who deployed through the au ebola support mechanism.
i also thank the countries that answered my call to send in logistical support, medical teams,crisis managers and aid for safe and dignified burials.
thousands of women and men from within and outside the countries put their lives on the lineto slow the advance of this disease.
thanks to these partners – and too many others to name – we have come a long way incontaining the outbreak.
the general assembly took decisive action, endorsing the un mission for ebola emergencyresponse – unmeer. i thank his e_cellency sam kutesa, president of the general assembly, forhis continued leadership in keeping the membership seized with this issue.
as unmeer prepares to close ne_t month, the un will maintain the dedicated high-levelleadership under who together with the un country teams, in its support to help the affectedcountries get to zero.
the strategy to end the outbreak is working – but the final stretch of the response remainsparticularly challenging.
cases in guinea and sierra leone have been reduced considerably. the response is being fine-tuned to focus on increasing engagement, awareness and contact tracing in the remainingaffected communities.
new cases in liberia show the need for continued vigilance given the regional risks. theliberian government"s proactive actions also underscore how the response strategy haseffectively reinforced national capacities and knowledge to be activated for future outbreaks.
but the impacts of the ebola crisis have been far-reaching and much work is needed to supportthe countries.
the outbreak has eroded progress on peace and development. it has disrupted health andsocial services.
many major economic sectors have been affected: agriculture, mining, trade, tourism,transport, fisheries and livestock. the functioning of schools, hospitals and other publicinfrastructure has suffered.
all of these disruptions have had a negative impact on the economies of all three countries –which were, prior to the ebola outbreak, on a positive growth trajectory.
this negative impact – on economies, livelihoods and more importantly lives – demands thatthe global community continues to prioritize recovery from ebola even long after the crisissubsides. this will be essential to “stay at zero” in order to strengthen resilience towithstand future shocks.
your continued generosity will help the affected countries carry out their plans for recoveryover the ne_t two years.
our shared goal is to build back stronger, safer and more resilient capacities for preventionand response. that means access to health services everywhere – not just in capitals. it meanshealth services equipped to not only respond to e_traordinary outbreaks like ebola, but toaddress malaria, cholera and other common ailments.
investing in guinea, sierra leone and liberia will yield global dividends in preventing localoutbreaks from becoming national emergencies and regional pandemics.
that is why today is about more than speeches and pledges – it is a chance to forge apartnership for a better future – a future that is full of opportunity and free of ebola.
our task is also to learn from our shortcomings and translate the lessons learned from this crisisin building back better. to do anything less would compound the tragedy.
i particularly welcome who"s lessons learned process and its plans for reform. just this week,who welcomed the report from the independent ebola interim assessment panel. who hasindicated that it is already moving forward to implement a number of the panel"srecommendations.
in addition, i have appointed a high-level panel on the global response to health crises,headed by his e_cellency president kikwete of the united republic of tanzania.
the panel is now working on the pressing question of how to strengthen national andinternational systems to prevent and manage future health crises. i look forward to itsrecommendations.
more broadly, we have to learn from the ebola outbreak responding to the crisis phase is notenough. with any outbreak, we have to do more than end the caseload. we must lay thefoundation for true health security by going the e_tra distance – as we pledge today – tocreate strong health systems that can prevent any recurrence and withstand any futureoutbreak.
presidents condé, koroma and johnson sirleaf have shown admirable statesmanship.
thanks to your support, we can largely be proud of what we have achieved in responding to thisunprecedented crisis.
yet we cannot breathe a sigh of relief – instead, let us collectively take a deep breath andresolve to finish the job.
i call on you to be part of this historic push to end the ebola outbreak in west africa andsupport the leaders and people of guinea, liberia and sierra leone in returning to a path ofsustainable development.
together, let us jumpstart a robust recovery over the ne_t two years, and usher in a betterfuture for generations to come.
thank you for your support and leadership. thank you very much.

today, we celebrate radio as a force for freedom of e_pression and pluralism, for all menand women. and especially women–who remain under-represented in news-making, indecision-making, and in media ownership.
how can we get the full story with only half of the world’s voices?
this is why unesco is working to develop radio as an independent and pluralistic mediafor both women and men, and to create a safer environment for all journalists, regardless ofgender.
radio can carry any message to any place at any time – we need to fully harness thispower for the benefit of everyone.
in this spirit, unesco calls today on all broadcasters–from local community stations tointernational media outlets–to promote gender equality and the empowerment of women andmen both in and through radio.
this is unesco’s message on world radio day.

the fight for women’s rights is central to the un’s global mission.
为妇女权利的斗争是联合国的全球使命的中心。
fifteen years ago, in beijing, governments committed themselves to equality, development and peace for all women, in all countries. the beijing declaration was a landmark on the road to women’s empowerment. it has guided policy making.it has inspired women and girls to strive for equality and opportunity, and reminded everyone that this is their right.
2024年前在北京,各国政府承诺为造福世界各地所有妇女而推进平等、发展与和平。《北京宣言》是赋予妇女权利进程中的一个里程碑。它为制定政策提供了指南,它鼓舞着妇女和女童争取平等和机会,并提醒大家,这是她们的权利。
we have seen progress. girls are now more likely to receive an education. women are now more likely to run businesses or participate in government. but much work remains. death in childbirth is still too common. too few women have access to family planning. violence against women remains a cause of global shame, and se_ual violence in war is endemic. i have just appointed a special representative to mobilize international action to address these crimes. at the united nations itself, we have more women in senior posts than at any time in history.
我们已经看到进展,现在,多数女孩可以接受教育,更多的妇女更有可能经营生意或担任公职。尽管如此,仍有大量工作要做。孕妇死亡率仍然高居不下,令人无法接受;可获得计划生育服务的妇女仍然寥寥无几;暴力侵害妇女行为仍遍及全球,令人蒙羞。尤其是,冲突期间的性暴力行为非常普遍。我刚刚任命一位特别代表,负责动员国际社会打击这些犯罪行为。在联合国担任高级岗位的女性达到历史最高水平。
securing women’s rights is central to all our hopes for peace, security and sustainable development. as we look back on 15 years of achievement, let us look forward to a world of equality and progress for all.
保障妇女的权利是至关重要的,是所有促进和平,安全和可持续发展的希望。让我们认真审视过去2024年所取得的成就,让我们期待一个人利平等、机会均等并共享进步的美好未来!

on this observance of world refugee day, we must note a troubling trend: the decline in the number of refugees who are able to go home.
在纪念世界难民日之际,我们必须注意到一个令人不安的趋势:能够返回家园的难民人数在下降。
in __, more than a million people returned to their own country on a voluntary basis. last year, only 250,000 did so - the lowest number in two decades. the reasons for this include prolonged instability in afghanistan, the democratic republic of congo and southern sudan.
__年,一百多万人自愿返回了自己的国家。去年,只有25万人这样做,这是二十年来的最低数字。出现这种现象的原因包括阿富汗、刚果民 主共和国和苏丹南部的长期动荡。
the theme of this year"s observance -- “home” -- highlights the plight of the world"s 15 million refugees, more than three-quarters of them in the developing world, who have been uprooted from their homes by conflict or persecution.
今年纪念活动的主题——“家园”——突显了全世界由于冲突或迫害而离乡背井的1500万难民的困境,其中四分之三以上在发展中国家。
for many refugees today, rapid urbanization means that home is not a crowded camp run by an international humanitarian organization, but a makeshift shelter in a shantytown, outside a city in the developing world.
今天,对许多难民而言,快速城市化意味着家园不是一个由国际人道主义组织管理的拥挤的营地,而是位于发展中世界某个城市外围某个棚户区的某 个临时收容所。
as these cities continue to e_perience spectacular growth, refugees are among their most vulnerable residents. they must struggle for the most basic services: sanitation, health and education. the impact of the global financial and economic crisis only increases the threat of marginalization and destitution.
