And not least by finding a way of reducing sickness absence.
Og ikke minst ved at vi makter å få ned sykefraværet.
No employee should worry about becoming ill.
Ingen arbeidstakere skal frykte for å bli syke.
Paid sick leave is a right that we have fought for, and a right that we will protect.
Sykelønn er en rettighet vi har kjempet fram, og en rettighet vi skal verne om.
But we must do what we can to ensure that as few as possible need to rely on such arrangements – first and foremost out of consideration for those who are sick.
Først og fremst av hensyn til dem som er syke.
We will defend the sick pay scheme, but not the high rate of sick leave.
Vi skal forsvare sykelønnsordningen, ikke det høye sykefraværet.
We will establish a working environment where there is room for all and where each individual is taken care of.
Vi vil ha et arbeidsliv med plass for alle og et arbeidsmiljø som tar vare på den enkelte.
Employers who care about their employees are our most important means of combating sickness absence.
Arbeidsgivere som bryr seg om sine medarbeidere er vårt viktigste virkemiddel mot sykefravær.
We know that our livelihoods will depend on each other’s work in the future, but we don’t yet know much about what this work will be.
Vi vet at vi skal leve av hverandres arbeid i framtiden, men vi vet lite om hva vi skal arbeide med.
In 1958, the Government received a report concluding that there was no possibility of finding oil in the continental shelf off the Norwegian coast.
I 1958 ble det levert en rapport til Regjeringen som konkluderte med at: ”Man kan se bort fra muligheten for at det skal finnes (…) olje på kontinentalsokkelen langs den norske kyst.”
Ten years later, we saw the start of the oil saga.
Ti år senere begynte olje-eventyret.
We were unable to predict the greatest industrial venture in Norwegian history just ten years before it began.
Vi klarte ikke å forutse det største norske industrieventyret i historien bare ti år før det startet.
When I meet people today who seem certain about what we will be living on tomorrow, I am always sceptical.
Å treffe mennesker i dag som er skråsikre på hva vi skal leve av i morgen, gjør meg alltid litt skeptisk.
We did not predict what we are living on today.
For vi klarte ikke i går å forutse hva vi lever av i dag.
At the start of the previous century, there were few who saw the economic potential of our waterfalls.
Ved inngangen til det forrige århundret var det knapt noen som så at fossene hadde økonomisk verdi.
But a few years later hydropower transformed the country and created a new industrial Norway.
Men kort tid etter forvandlet fossekraften landet og bygget det nye industri-Norge.
For a long time, most of us thought that fish farming would only ever be a small sideline for a few eager entrepreneurs along the coast.
Lenge trodde de fleste av oss at oppdrett av fisk bare ville være en liten binæring for noen få, ivrige gründere langs kysten.
Today we export more fish from farms than wild fish caught out at sea.
I dag eksporterer vi mer fisk fra mærer enn villfisk fra havet.
For those of us who grew up with the old Norwegian Telecommunications Administration and were used to waiting for many months to have a telephone line installed, it is almost unbelievable to see that the telecommunications industry is one of the most dynamic and successful in Norway today.
For oss som vokste opp med det gamle Televerket og som måtte vente i mange måneder i kø for å få installert telefonlinje, er det nesten uvirkelig at telekommunikasjon i dag er en av de mest spennende og lønnsomme næringene vi har.
Statoil, Hydro, Statkraft, Marine Harvest and Telenor are now among our largest companies.
Statoil, Hydro, Statkraft, Marine Harvest og Telenor er av våre største bedrifter i dag.
None of them could have been envisioned before their time.
Vi forutså ingen av dem.
There is a great deal we don’t know about the future, but what we do know is that knowledge will be vital.
Det er mye vi ikke vet om framtiden, men det vi vet er at vi vil trenge kunnskap.
It was knowledge that enabled us to harness the power of our waterfalls.
Det var kunnskap som gjorde at vi kunne temme fossekraften.
Nature has given us a great deal.
Naturen har gitt oss mye.
But it is only through knowledge that we have been able to make use of it.
Men det er kunnskap som har gjort at vi kan ta det i bruk.
It is our skilled workers, experienced engineers, good teachers, competent health workers, creative innovators and bold entrepreneurs – people with ability, courage and imagination – who will lead the way.
Det at vi har erfarne fagarbeidere, gode ingeniører, flinke lærere, dyktige helsearbeidere, skapende innovatører og dristige entreprenører – mennesker med kompetanse, mot og fantasi, er det som vil drive oss framover.
It is the children who started school in the autumn with great expectations and slightly-too-large school bags who will build this country and bring it into the future.
Det er de små menneskene som begynte på skolen i høst med store forventninger og litt for store skolesekker, som skal bygge og bære landet vårt i framtiden.
It is the love of learning they start off with that we must nurture and keep alive.
Den lærelysten de starter livet med må vi ta godt vare på så den ikke forsvinner.
One of our most challenging problems is that too many young people do not complete their schooling.
En av våre største utfordringer er at for mange ikke fullfører skolen.
This autumn, I visited Stovner Sixth Form College in Oslo.
I høst besøkte jeg Stovner videregående skole i Oslo.
For many years, it had a high drop-out rate.
De har i mange år slitt med høyt frafall.
Every pupil is seen.
Hver elev blir sett.
This too is all about caring.
Også dette handler om å bry seg.
Just as committed employers can work wonders by caring about every single person who is off sick, Stovner School has achieved impressive results by caring about pupils who are at risk of dropping out of school.
Akkurat som engasjerte arbeidsgivere kan oppnå imponerende resultater ved å bry seg om den enkelte under sykefraværet, har Stovner videregående skole oppnådd imponerende resultater ved å bry seg om elever som står i fare for å falle ut av skolen.
It is these young people who are our future.
Det er disse som er framtiden vår.
We know that the best thing we can equip them with is knowledge.
Vi vet at det beste vi kan utstyre dem med er kunnskap.
Knowledge is the ultimate trump card.
Kunnskap trumfer alt.
It is each other’s work and each other’s knowledge we will live on in the future.
Det er hverandres arbeid og hverandres kunnskap vi skal leve av i framtiden.
This is why the Government will initiate a broad public debate in the new year on these fundamental questions.
Derfor vil Regjeringen i året som kommer invitere til en bred samfunnsdebatt om disse grunnleggende spørsmålene.
Together with the most relevant ministers, I will invite people from different groups and communities to discuss these matters in the coming year.
I det kommende året vil jeg og de mest berørte statsrådene invitere folk fra ulike miljøer til et rådslag om dette.
What we are dealing with here is this country’s most important resource – people.
Det handler om landets viktigste ressurs: Menneskene.
On Christmas Eve 1968, the Apollo 8 expedition was the first manned space mission to orbit the moon.
Apollo 8- ekspedisjonen var den første bemannede romferden som kretset rundt månen, julaften 1968.
The pictures the crew brought home were completely new.
De tok med seg helt nye bilder hjem.
Not just the ones of the moon, but also those showing the Earth as seen from the moon.
Ikke bare av månen, men bilder av jorda – sett fra månen.
These pictures of the blue, life-sustaining planet Earth, with the desolate surface of the moon in the foreground and the never-ending universe behind, touched the whole world.
Disse bildene, med den blå og livfulle jordkloden i sentrum, den livløse overflaten på månen i forgrunnen og det endeløse universet som bakteppe, påvirket en hel verden.
They gave us new understanding of the uniqueness of our planet.
De ga oss en ny forståelse av hvor enestående planeten vår er.
But also of its vulnerability.
Men også av hvor sårbar den er.
So the question is, are we taking proper care of our vulnerable planet?
Og så blir spørsmålet: Tar vi egentlig godt nok vare på denne sårbare planeten vår?
And the answer is no.
Svaret er nei.
The globe is warming.
Kloden varmes opp.
The polar ice is melting.
Polisen smelter.
Sea levels are rising.
Havet stiger.
Before Christmas, the world’s leaders gathered in Copenhagen to negotiate a new and binding climate agreement.
Før jul var verdens ledere samlet i København for å forhandle fram en ny og forpliktende klimaavtale.
We failed to reach this goal.
Vi kom ikke i mål.
But we took an important first step.
Men vi tok et viktig første skritt.
We agreed on the key target of preventing the global average temperature from rising more than two degrees Celsius.
Vi ble enige om det grunnleggende målet om å hindre at temperaturen øker med mer enn to grader.
We agreed that we must move beyond the Kyoto Protocol, which only covers some industrialised countries.
Vi ble enige om at vi må videre fra Kyotoavtalen, som bare omfatter noen industriland.
Now, all the major polluting nations are included.
Nå er alle de store utslippslandene med.
We agreed on how we will ensure that climate mitigation actions are implemented as promised.
Vi ble enige om hvordan vi skal kontrollere at klimatiltak blir gjennomført som avtalt.
And most importantly, we agreed that the world’s rich countries will help to pay for climate adaptation and mitigation actions in developing countries.
Og viktigst: vi ble enige om at verdens rike land skal være med og betale for klimatiltak i utviklingsland.
The rich countries have historically been the great polluters, but developing countries will be responsible for the largest proportion of emissions in the future.
Det er den rike verden som er historiens store forurensere, men det er utviklingslandene som vil stå for de største utslippene i framtiden.
China has overtaken the US as the world’s largest carbon emitter.
Kina har gått forbi USA som verdens største utslippsnasjon.
We became rich by increasing our emissions.
Vi ble rike gjennom å øke våre utslipp.
That is why climate change can only be addressed if rich countries help to pay for emissions cuts in poor countries.
Derfor kan klimaproblemet bare løses dersom rike land er med på å ta regningen for utslippskutt i fattige land.
And that is why Norway is investing so heavily in efforts to prevent deforestation.
Dette er grunnen til at Norge satser så mye på tiltak mot avskoging.
If we succeed in halting deforestation, we will achieve a third of the total emissions cuts needed.
Klarer vi å stanse avskogingen vil vi redusere utslippene med en tredjedel av det som må til.
In addition, we must develop climate-friendly technology that enables us to combine growth with lower emissions.
I tillegg må vi utvikle miljøvennlige teknologier som gjør at vi kan kombinere vekst med lavere utslipp.
If we succeed in reducing emissions from power stations and industrial plants through carbon capture, we can really make a global impact.
Lykkes vi med å rense utslipp fra kraftverk og industrianlegg gjennom karbonfangst, får vi et tiltak som virkelig monner globalt.
Conservation of forests and carbon capture.
Skog og karbonfangst.
This is where Norway will make a difference.
Her skal Norge utgjøre en forskjell.
Our history is characterised by commitment and a willingness to take action, and as a result we sometimes play a greater role in the world than our size would suggest.
Vi har en historie med engasjement og vilje til innsats som gjør at vi i noen saker har en større rolle i verden enn det størrelsen på folketallet skulle tilsi.
We have been entrusted with a legacy that spans from Nansen’s dedication to helping refugees to Gro Harlem Brundtland’s international leadership in environmental issues.
Vi forvalter en arv – fra Nansens engasjement for flyktninger til Gro Harlem Brundtlands internasjonale lederskap i miljøspørsmål.
This means that we must continue to take responsibility.
Det gir oss et ansvar, for å ta ansvar.
This is why we will persevere in fighting poverty.
Derfor skal vi fortsette kampen mot fattigdom.
We will also maintain a presence in Afghanistan and Chad, providing troops and civilian personnel to contribute to security and reconstruction.
Derfor er vi til stede med soldater og sivile for å bidra til trygghet og gjenoppbygging i Afghanistan og Tsjad.
And we will strive every day to address climate change.
Og derfor skal vi anstrenge oss hver dag for å løse klimaproblemet.
These are common problems, and we can only solve them through common efforts.
Dette er felles problemer vi må løse, i fellesskap.
And we will do so with the help of each other’s knowledge and each other’s work.
Vi skal løse dem med hverandres kunnskap og hverandres arbeid.
This evening, I send greetings to all of you who are at work, keeping the wheels in motion this New Year’s Day, and to all who are serving Norway abroad.
I kveld vil jeg hilse til alle dere som er på jobb og holder hjulene i gang denne nyttårsdagen, og til alle som gjør tjeneste for Norge i utlandet.
I also send greetings to the Royal Family and thank them for all they have done during the year that has just ended.
Jeg vil hilse til kongefamilien og takke for deres innsats i året som har gått.
And to each and every one of you – Happy New Year!
Og til hver enkelt av dere: Godt nytt år.

Espen Barth Eide was newly appointed as the UN Secretary-General’s Special Adviser on Cyprus.
I helgen ble Espen Barth Eide utnevnt som FNs generalsekretærs spesialrådgiver for Kypros.
Ever since Cyprus became a member of the EU, the island has received support from the EEA and Norway Grants.
Siden Kypros ble medlem av EU har øya mottatt EØS-midler fra Norge.
Because of the division of the island in 1974, the house ended up in the middle of the demilitarised buffer zone.
Fra delingen av øya i 1974 ble huset liggende midt i den demilitariserte buffersonen.

Backed by the EEA and Norway Grants, the house transformed into a centre for education and dialogue between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots.
Med EØS-midler i ryggen er huset i dag omgjort til et levende møtesenter for undervisning og dialog mellom gresk-kyprioter og tyrkisk-kyprioter.
Norway also supports a project promoting dialogue on history teaching both north and south of the divide.
Norge støtter også et prosjekt for å starte en dialog om innholdet i historieundervisningen i nord og sør.
This year, the centre also received the EU prize for cultural heritage, Europa Nostra.
Senteret fikk nylig EUs kulturminnepris, Europa Nostra.
Look at the video above for more information about the activities at the H4C.
Se videoen over mer informasjon om aktivitetene ved huset.

Norway also supports NGOs that operate and execute projects benefitting the whole of Cyprus.
Samtidig støtter Norge frivillige organisasjoner som på tvers av delelinjen gjennomfører prosjekter som kommer hele øya til gode.
Public health (1,2 million euros) The bone marrow register in Cyprus is being upgraded.
Folkehelse (1,2 mill euro) Benmargregisteret på Kypros oppgraderes.
Several thousand new bone marrow donors have been recruited from both the north and south of the island.
Det er rekruttert flere tusen nye benmargsgivere fra begge befolkningsgruppene.
Several families that are disposed for, as an example, cancer, are given proper examinations and follow ups.
Flere familier som er disponert for blant annet kreft, kartlegges og få raskere behandling.

Vold i nære relasjoner (0,7 mill euro) Nikosia for øyas første spesialbygde krisesenter for ofre for familievold.
The centre is built in cooperation with the Norwegian Secretariat of the Shelter movement (Krisesentersekretariatet).
Senteret er under bygging i samarbeid med det norske Krisesentersekretariatet.
When finished, the centre will offer help to victims across the whole of the island.
Når det står ferdig skal det gi tilbud til familievoldsofre fra hele øya.
Culture centre (0,6 million euros) A new culture centre for visual art and research will open in Nicosia mid-September.
Kultursenter (0,6 mill euro) Et helt nytt senter for visuell kunst og forskning åpner i Nikosia i midten av september.
