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 XX, 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.
XX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 experience 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.
随着这些城市继续以惊人的速度增长，难民成为城市中最弱势的居民群体之一。他们必须为获得环境卫生、健康和教育等最基本的服务而挣扎。全球 金融和经济危机的影响更加剧了边缘化和赤贫的威胁。
we in the humanitarian community must adapt our policies to this changing profile of need. this means working closely with host governments to deliver services, and intensifying our efforts to resolve conflicts so that refugees can return home.
