国际减灾日致辞

Last year, Governments adopted the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction and embedded its objectives in the 2030 Development Agenda. Today, we launch the “Sendai Seven Campaign: Seven Targets, Seven Years”, which highlights how we can all contribute to reducing disaster losses. This year’s target is reducing loss of life.
去年，各国政府通过了《仙台减少灾害风险框架》，并将框架目标纳入《2030年发展议程》。今天，我们启动“仙台七运动：七年七目标”，该运动重点指出我们如何都能为减少灾害损失作出贡献。今年的目标是减少生命损失。
We can replace material possessions, but we cannot replace people. I am repeatedly appalled at how many people die in disasters. The majority of victims are invariably the poor and vulnerable.
物质财富损失后能够再换，人却不能。灾害中死亡人数之多一次次令我感到震惊。大多数遇难者总是穷人和弱势者。
Today, hundreds of millions of people live at risk from rising seas, earthquakes, drought, heatwaves, floods and storms. They live on marginal lands, beneath unstable hillsides or on storm-exposed coastlines. This is why eradicating extreme poverty – the first of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals, is essential to reducing disaster risk.
如今，数以亿计的人们生活在海平面上升、地震、干旱、热浪、洪水和风暴带来的风险之中。他们生活在边缘土地上、不稳定的山坡下或面临风暴危险的海岸线上。这就是为什么消除极端贫穷，即17项可持续发展目标中的第一项，对减少灾害风险至关重要。
The report “Poverty & Death: Disaster Mortality 1996-2024” published today by the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNISDR), is a damning indictment of inequality. High income countries suffer huge economic losses in disasters, but people in low income countries pay with their lives.
联合国减少灾害风险办公室（减灾办）今天发布的题为“贫穷与死亡：1996年至2024年灾害死亡率”的报告是对不平等现象的一个强烈谴责。在灾害中，高收入国家遭受巨大的经济损失，而低收入国家的人民则付出生命的代价。
On this International Day for Disaster Reduction, I call on all Governments to work with civil society and the private sector to move from managing disasters to managing risk. Let us move from a culture of reaction to one of prevention and build resilience by reducing loss of life.
值此国际减灾日，我呼吁各国政府与民间社会和私营部门合作，从管理灾害转向管理风险。让我们通过减少生命损失，从被动反应的文化走向预防文化，并建设抗灾能力。
