Statement by Mrs. Anna Kajumulo Tibaijuka Executive Director on the occasion of the Founding Congress of United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG)  
Paris, France
I wish to reiterate what the Secretary-General has stressed in his message to this Founding Congress: “the United Nations General Assembly recently decided that local authorities will participate in the deliberations of the Governing Council of UN-HABITAT, which is the UN focal point for Local Governments to strengthen its partnerships with governments in efforts to achieve the Millennium Development Goals”. This rule 64 of the Governing Council of UN-HABITAT represents a real breakthrough in the relations between the UN and local authorities.

Statement By The Executive Director Of UN-HABITAT Mrs. Anna Kajumulo Tibaijuka United Nations House  
Beirut, Lebanon
It is indeed an honour to be here with you today on my first visit to Lebanon. The excellent and warm hospitality that I have witnessed since my arrival is only paralleled by the dynamism I have seen in all aspects of daily life and the numerous achievements in urban renewal, housing construction and local economic development. The reconstruction of Beirut and of Lebanon, in such a short period of time, is nothing short of impressive. Like a Phoenix from the ashes, it demonstrates that where there is a will there is a way.

Je formule le voeux que l’occasion me sera bientôt donnée de venir sur place et dans un proche avenir, constater les progrès que feront, j’en suis persuadée, les deux campagnes.
