PRINCE OF MONACO CALLS FOR REINFORCING UN'S EMERGENCY RELIEF OFFICENew
York, Sep 24 2013 7:00PMCiting a host of crises, from conflicts to
natural disasters, Prince Albert II of
<"http://gadebate.un.org/68/monaco">Monaco today called for increased
resources for the United Nations office that coordinates international
relief for humanitarian emergencies.

"The evolution of elements which engender humanitarian emergency
situations in effect demands that we examine the means for
intervention which our Organisation has at its disposal," he told the
General Assembly on the first day of its annual General Debate.

"Conflicts, natural catastrophes, climate change, environmental
degradation: we must acknowledge that the UN Office for the
Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), to which I express my
profound gratitude, must have the necessary means and resources to
carry out the mandate with which we have entrusted it."

OCHA was set up in 1998, replacing the Department of Humanitarian
Affairs (DHA), with an expanded mandate to mobilize effective
humanitarian action in partnership with national and international
actors to alleviate human suffering in disasters and emergencies,
advocate the rights of people in need, promote preparedness and
prevention and facilitate sustainable solutions.

In a wide-ranging speech that touched on many of the crises and
challenges facing the world, Prince Albert cited the post-2015
development agenda which is the theme of the this year's General
Assembly, the world body's 68th. He joined many leaders in discussing
that and other issues of national and international concern during
today's session of the Debate, which warps up on 1 October.

The year 2015 is the deadline for achieving the Millennium Development
Goals (MDGs) that set specific goals on poverty alleviation,
education, gender equality, child and maternal health, environmental
stability, HIV/AIDS reduction, and a global partnership for
development, and Assembly President John Ashe has said the current
sessions must lay the groundwork for global sustainable development in
the years following the end of the current development cycle.

"It is in a sombre international context that we are going to define
the post-2015 development agenda, which will set the foundation stone
of our Organization's work and will be a crucial element for basing
its political legitimacy for the decades to come," the prince said.

He also called for limiting human activities that adversely affect the
climate and the environment, condemned the use of chemical; weapons
and the suffering of civilians in the Syrian civil warm and deplored
recent militant attacks in Kenya, Iraq and Pakistan.

"The stakes are high," Prince Albert concluded. "Those of us who wish
to reaffirm the central place of our Organization in international
governance must endow it with the means to ensure this leadership role
by being ambitious and resolute in our mission."Sep 24 2013 7:00PM
