Extractions: STATEMENT BY AMBASSADOR GILBERT LAURIN DEPUTY PERMANENT REPRESENTATIVE OF CANADA TO THE UNITED NATIONS TO THE THIRD COMMITTEE OF THE 57 TH SESSION OF THE UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY ON Item 104: Report of the United Nations High Commissioner for refugees, questions relating to refugees, returnees and displaced persons and humanitarian questions NEW YORK, NOVEMBER 13, 2002 Mr. Chairman, Mr. Chairman, I am pleased to reaffirm Canada's support for the work of the UNHCR and the important contribution the organization makes in providing protection and assistance to the world's refugees. Canada remains committed to the principles of international solidarity and continues to play an active role in burden sharing efforts. We welcome the reforms initiated by the High Commissioner since taking office to address issues of management and oversight accountability, and encourage further efforts to this end. We support the renewal of the UNHCR's mandate and look forward to discussions on the ways in which the UNHCR's work can be enhanced. We also look forward to the report to be presented to the General Assembly next year by the High Commissioner. We are confident that the UNHCR will see to it - that the review process is transparent and accessible. The success of any reforms, particularly as potentially wide-ranging as those being considered, will depend on engaging from the beginning states and other partners, including NGOs, the rest of the United Nations system and international financial institutions.

Extractions: Environment Unit, Office of the Senior Coordinator on Environmental Affairs (OSCEA) UNHCR provides protection and assistance to the world's refugees. OSCEA is responsible for developing a new environmental policy (with new tools) within UNHCR activities. UNHCR's new policy must be more operational and field oriented. This reformulated policy applies to environmental issues associated with the presence of refugees. Among the major environmental problems linked with the presence of refugees are deforestation, soil erosion, depletion and degradation of water resources as well as socio-economic impacts of such problems on refugees and local communities. It is hoped that the reformulated policy and operational outcomes set up, to be introduced in a step by step manner over the coming three to four years, will enable UNHCR to make focused, meaningful contribution to resolving these refugee related environmental problems.
