联合国难民事务高级专员周一警告称，保护被迫流离失所的人群至关重要，但流离失所的状态绝不应成为永久，因为长期冲突和日益减少的人道主义资源正在加剧全球难民危机。
The UN High Commissioner for Refugees warned Monday that protecting people forced to flee is essential, but displacement must not become permanent, as prolonged conflicts and shrinking humanitarian resources deepen the global refugee crisis.
巴哈姆·萨利赫在日内瓦向联合国难民署执行委员会发表讲话时表示，全球已有超过1.17亿人因冲突、暴力、迫害和其他威胁而被迫流离失所。
Addressing the UNHCR Executive Committee in Geneva, Barham Salih said more than 117 million people have been forcibly displaced worldwide by conflict, violence, persecution, and other threats.
他说：“当人们被迫逃离家园时，我们必须保护他们。但我们不能接受无限期的流离失所成为他们的未来。”
"We must protect people when they are forced to flee. But we cannot accept indefinite displacement as their future," he said.
萨利赫警告称，冲突制造难民的速度快于解决冲突的速度，导致数百万人陷入长期危机之中。
Salih warned that conflicts are producing displacement faster than they can be resolved, leaving millions trapped in prolonged crises.
他强调，仅靠人道主义援助无法提供持久的解决方案，呼吁加大对冲突预防、外交以及为难民创造重建生活机会的投资。
He stressed that humanitarian assistance alone cannot provide lasting solutions, calling for greater investment in conflict prevention, diplomacy, and opportunities for refugees to rebuild their lives.
他还说：“成功也意味着人们能够重新掌握自己的命运：能够工作、学习、支持家人，并为自己未来做出选择。我们衡量成功的标准不应仅仅是拯救了多少生命，更应看人们能够重建多少生活，以及他们能找到多少持久的解决方案。”在谈到教育时，萨利赫指出，仍有580万名难民儿童无法上学，凸显了教育机会方面长期存在的障碍。
"Success must also mean people recovering agency: being able to work, to learn, to support their families, and to make the choices about their future," he said. "We must measure success not only by the lives we save, but by the lives people are able to rebuild, and the lasting solutions they can find." Turning to education, Salih said 5.8 million refugee children remain out of school, highlighting persistent barriers to educational opportunities.
他宣布计划启动“志存高远”倡议，旨在通过与各国政府、大学和私营部门的合作，扩大难民学生获得大学学位和其他高等教育资格的机会。
He announced plans to launch the "Aiming Higher" initiative, aimed at expanding refugee students' access to university degrees and other higher education qualifications through cooperation with governments, universities, and the private sector.
与此同时，联合国难民署正面临严重的资金危机。据该机构负责人称，截至10月9日，其2026年度85亿美元的资金需求中仅筹集到30亿美元，占所需总额的35%。
Meanwhile, the UNHCR faces a severe funding crisis, having secured only $3 billion, or 35%, of its $8.5 billion requirements for 2026 as of Oct. 9, according to the agency's chief.
此外，自2024年以来，该机构的工作人员已从近2万人减少到不足1.2万人，其中近8000名员工在大规模重组中离职。
The agency's workforce has also fallen from nearly 20,000 to under 12,000 since 2024, with nearly 8,000 employees leaving amid major restructuring.
萨利赫警告称，资源缩减正威胁基本的保护服务，并强调效率措施不可能无限弥补经费下降。
Salih warned that shrinking resources are threatening essential protection services, stressing that efficiency measures cannot compensate indefinitely for declining funding.
他说：“保护有底线。低于底线时，系统并非仅仅变小。我们能够提供的保护会开始失效。”
"Protection has a floor. Below it, the system does not simply become smaller. The protection we can provide begins to fail," he said.
