第24/16号决定的附件
Annex to decision 24/16
联合国环境规划署2007—2012年时期涉及淡水问题的水事政策和战略最后增订文本摘要
Summary of final updated water policy and strategy of the United Nations Environment Programme as it relates to freshwater for the period 2007-2012
1. 自环境署设立以来，水事问题一直在其方案制定工作中占据着关键地位。
Since the creation of UNEP, water has played a key role in its programming.
实际上，区域海洋方案正是其首要举措之一，而且迄今仍然是环境署的一个强有力的主旨方案。
In fact, the Regional Seas Programme was one of its first flagship initiatives and remains today a strong keystone programme for UNEP.
自于1992年在里约热内卢举行了联合国环境与发展会议以来，与海洋资源管理有关的各项议题业已在国际领域内变得日趋重要和显著。
Since the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development took place in Rio de Janeiro in 1992, the issues related to freshwater resources management have taken on an increasingly prominent role in the international arena.
环境署通过各项举措和活动对此种变化作出了反应。
UNEP has reacted to this through various initiatives and activities.
淡水议题的重要性在地方、国家、分区域、区域和全球各级持续加大，而且这一重要性业已在各项千年发展目标、可持续发展问题世界首脑会议、可持续发展委员会、以及在其他论坛上作了详细阐述。
The importance of freshwater issues continues to rise at the local, national, subregional, regional and global levels as elaborated upon in the Millennium Development Goals, the World Summit on Sustainable Development, the Commission on Sustainable Development and other forums.
环境署必须继续推进和演变其方案制订工作，以便有效地处理淡水问题，为此它制定了此项水事政策和战略。
UNEP must continue to evolve its programming to address such freshwater issues and has thus developed the present policy and strategy.
2．环境署涉及淡水问题的水事政策和战略列于本报告的附件之中。
The UNEP water policy and strategy as it relates to freshwater is outlined in the annex to the present report.
环境署在此方面的着眼点是，水事政策系由环境署按照环境署理事会及联合国大会的要求对水事政策进行界定，并在此问题上得到了其他相关的国际机构和论坛(例如《21世纪议程》、可持续发展问题世界首脑会议和可持续发展委员会等)的指导。
UNEP starts from the premise that the water policy is defined by the mandates of UNEP as requested by the UNEP Governing Council and the United Nations General Assembly and is also guided by other relevant international bodies and forums (e.g., Agenda 21, the World Summit on Sustainable Development and the Commission on Sustainable Development).
考虑到各相关论坛的指导、以及理事会的具体任务规定，环境署的水事政策和战略的总体目标是：大力推动在水资源管理过程中保持环境可持续性、利用侧重生态系统的综合管理办法，推动实现各项国际商定的具体目标以及那些与水及社会经济发展有关的总体目标。
Taking into consideration the guidance of relevant forums and the specific mandates of the Governing Council the overall goal for the UNEP water policy and strategy is: to contribute substantively to environmental sustainability in the management of water resources, utilizing integrated ecosystems approaches, as a contribution to the internationally agreed targets and goals relevant to water and socio-economic development.
在此通过综述以下各种概念性考虑因素、以及以旨在确定环境署的工作重点的一整套原则为基础，对这一淡水战略作了详细的阐述：侧重生态系统的处理办法、健全的经济和社会考虑因素、应对各种风险及其方式方法、能力建设、伙伴关系和利益攸关方参与—环境署将通过这些手段开展其水事活动。
The freshwater strategy is herein elaborated through a set of principles designed to focus UNEP work by outlining the conceptual considerations -- ecosystems-based approaches, sound economic and social considerations and addressing risk -- and operational means -- building capacity, partnerships and stakeholder participation -- through which UNEP will implement its water-related activities.
3．正如在本报告附件的第二章和第四章中所指出的那样，环境署在海洋和沿海地区方面的任务规定及各项与之相关的战略均系通过《全球行动纲领》及各项区域海洋和行动计划提供。
As pointed out in chapters II and IV of the annex, UNEP mandates on oceans and coasts and their associated strategies are provided through the Global Programme of Action on Land-based Activities and the regional seas conventions and action plans.
根据这一事实，本文件并不试图进一步阐述这些海洋和沿海地区战略，而是把具体的讨论重点放在淡水问题方面。
In the light of that fact, the present document does not attempt further to elaborate a strategy on oceans and coasts, but specifically focuses instead on freshwater issues.
