2. Yet many challenges persist. Eradicating poverty is the greatest global challenge, as poverty poses difficulties to meeting the needs, protecting and promoting the rights of all children in the world. Despite encouraging achievements, the number of children dying before their fifth birthday remains unacceptably high. Malnutrition, pandemics, including HIV/AIDS, as well as malaria, tuberculosis and other preventable diseases continue to be a hindrance to a healthy life for millions of children. Lack of access to education remains a significant obstacle to their development. A large number of children are still subject to violence, exploitation and abuse, as well as to inequity and discrimination, in particular against the girl child. We will work to break the cycle of poverty, achieve the internationally agreed development goals, including the Millennium Development Goals, create an environment that is conducive to the well-being of children and realize all the rights of the child.
2. 然而，依然存在许多挑战。消除贫穷就是全球最大的挑战，因为贫穷使我们难以满足世界所有儿童的需求，保护和促进他们的权利。尽管取得了令人鼓舞的成就，但儿童五岁前死亡的人数仍然很高，令人难以接受。营养不良、包括艾滋病毒/艾滋病在内的流行病以及疟疾、肺结核和其他可预防疾病，仍然阻碍数百万儿童健康地生活。无法享受教育仍然严重阻碍着儿童的成长。许多儿童仍然遭受暴力、剥削和虐待，遭受不公平的待遇和歧视，女童尤其如此。我们将会努力打破贫穷的循环，实现国际商定的发展目标，包括千年发展目标，创造一个有利于增进儿童福利和落实儿童所有权利的环境。
