But the security situation in Nigeria is now a growing threat,” said Mr Gadgil.
Men sikkerhetssituasjonen i Nigeria er nå en økende trussel, sier Gadgil.
In the early 2000s, a number of Muslim leaders in northern Nigeria opposed polio vaccination and gave out false information claiming that vaccination could lead to infertility and AIDS.
De informerte feilaktig om at vaksinering kunne føre til sterilitet og aids.
The result was that vaccine coverage fell and the number of cases of polio in northern Nigeria and neighbouring countries rose.
Resultatet var at vaksinasjonsdekningen falt og antallet poliotilfeller økte i Nord-Nigeria og nabolandene.
In December last year 19 health workers taking part in polio vaccination drives in Pakistan were also killed.
I desember i fjor ble også 19 helsearbeidere som jobbet med å vaksinere folk mot polio i Pakistan drept.

Politiske samtaler med EU i Tromsø
Standardization of catch certificates was also discussed.
Fangstsertifikater var et annet tema i samtalene.
"We need effective measures to combat illegal fishing.
- Vi trenger effektive tiltak for å bekjempe ulovlig fiske.
Norway is aware that a number of countries are in the process of developing their own certificates.
Norge opplever at flere land nå utvikler sine egne sertifikater.
It would be unfortunate if there are several different standards in operation, and I have therefore taken the initiative to invite the EU to collaborate on developing a global standard for catch certificates," says Berg-Hansen.
Det er uheldig med sprikende standarder, og jeg har derfor tatt initiativ overfor EU om et samarbeid for å utvikle en global standard, sier Berg- Hansen.

Article in Stavanger Aftenblad and Bergens Tidende, 13 September 2012
Artikkel i Stavanger Aftenblad og Bergens Tidende 13.09.12
The convention has entered into force, and 75 states have already ratified it.
Avtalen er trådt i kraft og 75 stater har allerede tatt den inn i egen lovgivning.
This was no foregone conclusion when we first started this work.
Det var ingen selvfølge da vi begynte dette arbeidet.
I remember it well.
Jeg husker tilbake til februar 2007.
For many years, efforts in the UN had been deadlocked.
I mange år hadde arbeidet stått bom fast i de tradisjonelle FN-organene.
Was there another way forwards?
Fantes en annen vei?
The problem facing us was daunting.
Problemet var formidabelt.
The term “cluster munition” is used to describe an artillery shell that opens just before it hits the ground and then spreads small submunitions over a large area.
Klasevåpen er betegnelsen på en artillerigranat som åpner seg like før den treffer bakken og sprer mange små sprenglegemer over store områder.
There is still unexploded ordnance from cluster munitions in 28 countries and territories, which continues to injure civilians, spread fear and make it impossible to farm huge areas of land.
På mange slagmarker ligger det igjen udetonerte eksplosiver som i årevis rammer sivile, sprer frykt og legger store jordbruks- og landområder øde.
Some of these countries are so badly affected that it could take decades to remove all the unexploded remnants.
28 land og områder er rammet, noen så hardt at det vil kunne ta årtier å fjerne alle disse dødsfellene.
In other words, this is a weapon that has unacceptable humanitarian consequences in a similar way to anti-personnel mines, which were prohibited in 1997.
I sum: dette er et våpen der bruken har uakseptable humanitære konsekvenser, nært beslektet med anti-personellminene som ble forbudt i 1997.
One year later, we drew up a strategy together with certain like-minded countries and in close cooperation with the Norwegian Ministry of Defence, experts in the Norwegian armed forces, and not least knowledgeable and deeply engaged civil society organisations.
Året etter forberedte vi strategien i kontakt med noen nærstående land og i tett samarbeid med Forsvarsdepartementet, eksperter i det norske forsvaret, og ikke minst; i tett dialog med et kunnskapsrikt og engasjert sivilsamfunn.
After the meeting in Oslo, negotiations continued all over the world.
Etter Oslo-møtet i 2007 fortsatte forhandlingene verden over.
More and more countries joined the effort.
Stadig sluttet nye land seg til.
However, the major weapons producers, such as the US, China, India, Pakistan and Israel, made it very clear that they would not take part.
Men de store våpenprodusentene, som USA, Russland, Kina, India, Pakistan og Israel, sa klart ifra at de ikke ville være med.
Was there then any point in trying to reach an agreement, the sceptics asked.
Var det da noen vits med en slik avtale? spurte skeptikerne.
I am very glad that we did not let them stop us.
Jeg er så glad for at vi ikke lot oss stanse!
Gradually we won the support of the majority of the world’s states.
Gradvis samlet vi støtte blant flertallet av verdens stater.
When the convention was signed in Oslo in December 2008, there were nearly 100 signatories.
Da avtalen ble undertegnet i Oslo i desember 2008, signerte nærmere 100 stater konvensjonen.
But willingness to work in new ways was also necessary.
Men det krevde også vilje til å arbeide på nye måter.
We invited civil society organisations to take part in the process.
Vi inviterte sivilsamfunnet inn i prosessen.
We discovered that the experience and knowledge of the victims of cluster munitions was invaluable.
Vi lærte at erfaringene og kunnskapene fra ofrene for klasevåpen var uvurderlige.
Secondly, we have learned how important it is to establish a norm – a standard for what is acceptable.
For det andre har vi lært noe om betydningen av å etablere en norm; å sette en standard for hva som er akseptabelt.
Thirdly, the convention is a forward-looking one.
For det tredje peker avtalen framover.
The states parties have destroyed nearly a million cluster munitions, and with them some 85 million submunitions, totalling nearly 70 % of all the cluster munitions that were stockpiled in these countries before the convention came into force.
Statene som har inngått avtalen, har ødelagt nesten en million klasebomber, og med dem 85 millioner sprenglegemer, i sum utgjør det nær 70 prosent av alle de våpnene disse statene hadde på lager før avtalen trådte i kraft.
Armed forces, including the Norwegian armed forces, should have effective weapons.
Et militært forsvar som det norske skal ha effektive våpen.
Cluster munitions, however, cannot be described as effective even from a military point of view.
Men klasevåpen kan heller ikke fra et militært ståsted kalles effektivt.
We have therefore destroyed all our stockpile of these munitions.
Vi har derfor ødelagt alle klasevåpen vi hadde på lagre.
More than 20 of our NATO allies are states parties.
Over 20 av våre Nato-allierte er med på avtalen.
We have made a real difference.
Vi har gjort en forskjell.
At the meeting this week, we will reaffirm our commitments: to persuade more countries to join the convention, to protect the letter of the convention against attempts to weaken it, and not least to continue to support the victims.
På møtet denne uken gjentar vi våre forpliktelser: Å få med flere land, beskytte avtalens bokstav mot forsøk på å svekke innholdet, få med enda flere stater og ikke minst; fortsette å støtte ofrene.
