Norway provides NOK 11 million to assist hurricane victims in Haiti and Cuba
Norge gir 11 millioner kr til å hjelpe orkanofre på Haiti og Cuba
Norway is therefore contributing NOK 8 million to relief efforts in Haiti and NOK 3 million to relief efforts in Cuba,” said State Secretary Håkon A. Gulbrandsen.
Norge gir derfor 8 millioner kroner i støtte til hjelpearbeidet på Haiti og 3 millioner til hjelpearbeidet på Cuba.
“The hurricanes have created an acute humanitarian situation in Haiti and Cuba.
– Orkanene har skapt en akutt humanitær situasjon på Haiti og Cuba.
The many who have been severely affected need our, and other countries’, help.
De mange som er rammet hardt trenger vår og andre lands hjelp.
More than 300 000 are affected by flooding, and 100 000 have had to evacuate their homes.
Over 300.000 mennesker er berørt av oversvømmelser, 100.000 mennesker har måttet evakuere sine hjem.
Large areas of Haiti are still under water, making it difficult to get emergency aid through to the victims.
Store områder på Haiti ligger fremdeles under vann og gjør det vanskelig for nødhjelpen å nå frem.
In Cuba, around one million people were evacuated from the hardest hit areas, which prevented major loss of lives.
På Cuba ble rundt 1 million mennesker evakuert fra de hardest rammede områdene, noe som forhindret store tap av liv.
Many homes have been severely damaged, and infrastructure and agricultural areas have been destroyed.
Mange har fått ødelagt hus og hjem.
The aid from Norway will be channelled through UN agencies, the Red Cross and other NGOs.
Bistanden fra Norge vil gis gjennom FN-organisasjoner, Røde Kors-bevegelsen og frivillige organisasjoner.
Norway increases aid to Haiti
Aukar bistanden til Haiti
Publisher Ministry of Foreign Affairs
Utgjevar: Utenriksdepartementet
The earthquake in Haiti on 12 January 2010 hit the country hard, in both human and economic terms.
Jordskjelvet i Haiti 12. januar i år ramma landet hardt, både menneskeleg og økonomisk.
“We are increasing our support for reconstruction after natural disasters by NOK 50 million.
– Vi aukar støtta til gjenreising etter naturkatastrofar med 50 millionar kroner.
Altogether, Norway has pledged NOK 800 million in aid to Haiti for the period up to 2014.
Noreg har lova til saman 800 millionar kroner i bistand til Haiti fram til 2014.
“We know from experience that new natural disasters will hit the Horn of Africa, Asia and Latin America in the course of the year.
– Av erfaring veit vi at nye naturkatastrofar vil ramme Afrikas Horn, Asia og Latin-Amerika i løpet av året.
So it’s important to set aside funds for dealing with acute crises,” Foreign Minister Jonas Gahr Støre said.
Derfor er det viktig at vi set av pengar til å møte akutte kriser, seier utanriksminister Jonas Gahr Støre.

Revised National Budget 2010
Revidert nasjonalbudsjett 2010
Record-high aid budget in time of crisis
Rekordhøyt bistandsbudsjett i krisetid
“It is important that Norway maintains its development assistance at this record-high level.
- Det er viktig at Norge opprettholder det rekordhøye nivået på bistanden.
Development assistance accounts for 1.09% of Norway’s estimated GNI for 2010.
Bistanden utgjør 1,09 prosent av anslaget for bruttonasjonalinntekt (BNI) for 2010.
“We will honour our commitments and intensify Norway’s efforts to help poor countries to cope better with conflicts, the climate crisis and the financial crisis,” said Mr Solheim.
- Vi står ved våre forpliktelser og forsterker den norske innsatsen for å bidra til at fattige land bedre skal kunne møte konflikter, klimakrisen og finanskrisen, sier Solheim.
The Government will continue to give priority to peacebuilding, human rights and humanitarian assistance, women and gender equality, the environment and climate change, clean energy, good governance, institution building, and the fight against corruption.
Regjeringen vil videreføre sin satsing på fredsbygging, menneskerettigheter og humanitær bistand, kvinner og likestilling, miljø og klima, ren energi, godt styresett, institusjonsbygging og kamp mot korrupsjon.
The Government will also continue to take a special responsibility in the efforts to achieve the UN Millennium Development Goals on reducing child and maternal mortality.
Regjeringen vil fortsatt ta et spesielt ansvar i oppfølgingen av FNs tusenårsmål om redusert barne- og mødredødelighet.
In addition, the Government proposes a commitment authorisation for a further NOK 1.4 billion.
I tillegg gis det en tilsagnsfullmakt på til sammen 1,4 milliarder kroner.
The Government proposes increases in allocations in the following areas in 2010:
I 2010 foreslår regjeringen å øke bistanden på disse områdene:
an extra NOK 650 million to Norway’s international climate and forest initiative
Klima- og skogsatsingen foreslås økt med omlag 650 millioner kroner.
an extra NOK 35 million to NGOs
Bevilgningen til frivillige organisasjoner foreslås økt med 35 millioner kroner.
an extra NOK 50 million to efforts to help children through UNICEF
Innsatsen for barn gjennom Unicef foreslås økt med 50 millioner kroner.
an extra NOK 20 million to research and higher education as part of the Government’s India Strategy.
Satsingen på forskning og høyere utdanning foreslås økt med 20 millioner kroner, som et ledd i regjeringens India-strategi.
This is in keeping with international practice and is approved by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) as ODA.
Dette er i tråd med internasjonal praksis, og godkjent som bistand av Organisasjonen for økonomisk samarbeid og utvikling (OECD).
This allocation will be administered by the Ministry of Labour and Social Inclusion, the Ministry of Education and Research and the Ministry of Children and Equality.
Pengene administreres av Arbeids- og inkluderingsdepartementet, Kunnskapsdepartementet og Barne- og likestillingsdepartementet.
”Adapting to climate change decisive for Africa’s future”
– Klimatilpasning er avgjørende for Afrikas fremtid
Climate change has already hit the continent hard", Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said in Cape Town.
Klimaendringene har allerede rammet kontinentet hardt, sa statsminister Jens Stoltenberg i Cape Town.
Africa represents a negligible amount of the world’s CO2 emissions, but climate change has already hit the continent hard.
Afrika står for en liten del av verdens CO2-utslipp, men klimaendringene har allerede rammet kontinentet hardt.
Drought, flooding, desertification and reduced food security and access to water have increasingly become part of reality for many African countries.
Tørke, flom, ørkenspredning og redusert matsikkerhet og vanntilgang er blitt en større del av virkeligheten for mange afrikanske land.
That is why we need to know more about how we may assist Africa in adapting to climate change and prevent humanitarian catastrophes”, Mr Stoltenberg stated.
Derfor trenger vi mer kunnskap om hvordan vi kan bistå Afrika i å tilpasse seg klimaendringene og forebygge humanitære katastrofer, sa Stoltenberg.
An important part of this will be the Government’s support to measures reducing deforestation.
Regjeringens satsing på støtte til redusert avskoging er en viktig del av dette.
Norway took the initiative to establish INTERPOL's work against fisheries crime in 2013 and the Fisheries Crime Working Group in INTERPOL is currently chaired by Norway.
Norge tok i initiativ til Interpols arbeid mot fiskerikriminalitet i 2013 og leder i dag organisasjonens arbeidsgruppe.
- Every six fish imported into the EU are illegally caught.
- Hver sjette fisk som importeres til EU er ulovlig fanget.
EU Member States have a clear responsibility to combat fisheries crime, Aspaker says.
EU-landene har et klart ansvar for å bekjempe fiskerikriminalitet, sier Aspaker.
- INTERPOL's work against fisheries crime has yielded results.
- Interpols arbeid mot fiskerikriminalitet har gitt resultater.
The rolling up of a network fishing for Patagonian toothfish in the Southern Ocean has been one of the most important victories.
En av de viktige seirene er opprullingen av nettverket som fisket etter patagonsk tannfisk i Sørishavet.
Investigations and criminal sanctions are essential in order to successfully combat fisheries crime.
Etterforskning og strafferettslige sanksjoner er avgjørende for å få has på fiskerikriminalitet.
The job is not done until the perpetrators are caught and owners on land are held liable, the Minister stresses.
Men jobben er ikke gjort før bakmennene er tatt og eierne på land stilles til ansvar, understreker fiskeriministeren.

Norway’s aid budget doubled in nine years
Bistandsbudsjettet doblet på ni år
Since 2004, the aid budget has doubled, from NOK 15 billion to NOK 30 billion.
Siden 2004 er bistandsbudsjettet doblet fra 15 til 30 milliarder kroner.
“The Government proposes increasing its allocation to the fight against poverty by NOK 2.4 billion, so that we continue to allocate 1 % of our gross national income (GNI) to Official development assistance.
- Regjeringen foreslår å øke støtten til fattige med 2,4 milliarder kroner slik at vi fortsetter å gi 1 prosent av landets samlede inntekter (BNI) til bistand.
Norway is undeniably one of the world’s leading aid donors, at a time when many countries are cutting their aid dramatically because of economic problems,” said Minister of International Development Heikki Eidsvoll Holmås.
Norge er en av verdens desidert største givere mens flere land kutter dramatisk på grunn av økonomiske problemer, sier utviklingsminister Heikki Eidsvoll Holmås.
Other major priority areas in this year’s record budget are Norway’s International Climate and Forest Initiative/ REDD+, food security, health and education.
Andre store satsinger i rekordbudsjettet er klima- og skogsatsing, matsikkerhet, helse og utdanning.
“More than ever, it is now crucial that rich countries take responsibility for fighting poverty and halting dangerous climate change,” Mr Holmås said.
- Mer enn noen gang er det nå viktig at rike land tar ansvar for å bekjempe fattigdom og bremse de farlige klimaendringene, sier Holmås.
More emphasis on equitable distribution of resources and opportunities Many developing countries are experiencing significant economic growth, without a corresponding reduction in the number of people living in poverty.
Mer trøkk på rettferdig fordeling Mange utviklingsland opplever betydelig økonomisk vekst uten tilsvarende reduksjon av antall fattige.
“Economic growth is essential, but without equitable distribution of power and resources it is impossible to achieve sustainable development for the world’s poor.
- Økonomisk vekst trengs, men uten rettferdig fordeling av penger og makt klarer man ikke skape en varig utvikling for verdens fattige mennesker.
This is the case both in poor countries and in middle-income countries such as India and South Africa, where there are millions of people living in destitution,” Mr Holmås said.
Dette gjelder både i fattige land og i middels rike land som India og Sør-Afrika der det lever millioner av lutfattige mennesker, sier Holmås.
Important priority areas in this year’s budget include helping countries to develop sound taxation systems, supporting trade unions, and the fight against illicit financial flows.
Viktige satsinger på statsbudsjettet er å støtte land med å utvikle gode skattesystemer, støtte til fagforeninger og kamp mot ulovlig kapitalflyt.
Green energy for the poor Globally, 1.3 billion people do not have access to electricity.
Grønn strøm til fattige 1,3 milliarder mennesker i verden lever uten strøm.
Norway’s allocation to promoting renewable energy is to be increased by around NOK 250 million, to over NOK 2 billion in total.
Støtten til fornybar energi øker med om lag 250 millioner til i overkant av 2 milliarder kroner.
This investment in renewable energy will be made through the Government’s International Energy and Climate Initiative (Energy+), the Norwegian renewable energy initiative, and the Norwegian Investment Fund for Developing Countries (Norfund).
Satsingen på fornybar energi gjøres gjennom Regjeringens energi- og klimainitiativ (Energi+), Ren energi og Statens investeringsfond for næringsutvikling i fattige land (Norfund).
“Energy is the key to sound development.
- Energi er nøkkelen til god utvikling.
We know this from our own history.
Det vet vi fra vår egen historie.
Green energy provides schoolchildren with light to do their homework, it creates new jobs and ensures better health services.
Grønn strøm gir skolebarn leselys, skaper nye arbeidsplasser og sikrer bedre helsetilbud.
Moreover, renewable energy makes good sense in the context of climate policy.
Dessuten er fornybar energi god klimapolitikk.
There is a need for enormous investments, and we will use our development assistance funds in such a way that we ensure that private sector is on board,” Mr Holmås said.
Det trengs enorme investeringer, og vi vil bruke bistandspengene slik at vi får privat sektor med på laget, sier Holmås.
Contraception for girls “Women and girls must be able to decide for themselves when they want to have children, and how many they want to have.
Jenter får prevensjon - Jenter og kvinner skal selv få bestemme når de vil ha barn og hvor mange de vil ha.
Access to contraception is important in this context,” Mr Holmås said.
Da er prevensjon viktig, sier Holmås.
In this year’s budget, there is an additional allocation of up to NOK 150 million to efforts to promote access to contraception.
I statsbudsjettet bevilges inntil 150 millioner nye kroner til prevensjon.
Norway is also increasing its allocation to the UN Population Fund (UNFPA) by NOK 30 million, to over NOK 400 million in total.
Norge øker dessuten støtten til FNs befolkningsfond (UNFPA) med 30 millioner, til over 400 millioner kroner.
The Government will intensify its efforts to promote education in areas affected by conflict and natural disasters, and will play a leading role in this area internationally.
Regjeringen vil styrke satsingen på utdanning i konflikt- og katastrofeområder og ta en lederrolle på dette internasjonalt.
An additional allocation of NOK 75 million will be made to NGOs that are helping to provide education in countries where the authorities are failing to do so.
Derfor bevilges 75 millioner nye kroner til frivillige organisasjoner som fungerer når myndigheter svikter.
More than 1.4 million people depend on forests for their livelihoods worldwide.
Mer enn 1,4 milliarder mennesker i verden er avhengige av skogen.
Norway has helped to achieve significant reductions in emissions in Brazil, and has supported promising initiatives to promote improved forest management in countries such as Indonesia, Guyana and Tanzania.
Norge har bidratt til betydelige utslippsreduksjoner i Brasil og til lovende tiltak for bedre skogforvaltning i land som Indonesia, Guyana og Tanzania.
