The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), originally known as the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund, was created by the United Nations General Assembly on 11 December 1946, to provide emergency food and healthcare to children and mothers in countries that had been devastated by World War II.

OBS

In 1950, UNICEF's mandate was extended to address the long-term needs of children and women in developing countries everywhere. In 1953, it became a permanent part of the United Nations System, and the words "international" and "emergency" were dropped from the organization's name, though it retained the original acronym, "UNICEF".

L’UNICEF a été créé par l’Assemblée générale des Nations Unies le 11 décembre 1946 à titre d’organisme temporaire sous le nom de «Fonds international des Nations Unies pour le secours de l’enfance» afin de venir en aide aux enfants des pays européens dévastés par la Deuxième Guerre mondiale. En 1953, l’UNICEF est devenu un organisme permanent des Nations Unies destiné à améliorer les conditions de vie des enfants en Asie, en Afrique, au Moyen-Orient et en Amérique latine. Son nom a alors été changé pour «Fonds des Nations Unies pour l’enfance», mais l’acronyme «UNICEF» a été conservé.

OBS

La mission de l’UNICEF auprès des enfants dans le monde entier n’est pas qu’une assertion morale; elle est codifiée dans la Convention relative aux droits de l’enfant des Nations Unies, le traité des droits de l’homme le plus largement ratifié à l’échelle mondiale, adoptée par 193 pays, y compris le Canada.

Hedge fund. A pooled investment vehicle that is privately organised and is administered by professional investment managers. It is different from another pooled investment fund, the mutual fund, in that access is available only to wealthy individuals and institutional managers. Moreover, hedge funds are able to sell securities short and buy securities on leverage, which is consistent with their typically short-term and high risk oriented investment strategy, based primarily on the active use of derivatives and short positions. US [United States] hedge funds are exempt from Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements, as well as from regulatory restrictions concerning leverage or trading strategies.

OBS

Today, the term "hedge fund" refers not so much to hedging techniques, which hedge funds may or may not employ, as it does to their status as private and unregistered investment pools.

French

Fonds spéculatif. Structure de placement collectif organisée de façon privée et administrée par des professionnels de la gestion de placements. Elle diffère d’une autre forme de fonds collectif, le fonds commun de placement, au sens où son accès est réservé à des particuliers fortunés et à des gestionnaires de portefeuilles institutionnels. De plus, les fonds spéculatifs sont en mesure d’acheter et de vendre des valeurs mobilières sur fonds empruntés, ce qui est conforme à leur stratégie d’investissement normalement axée sur le court terme et la prise de risques importants, principalement en utilisant des instruments dérivés et des positions à découvert. Les fonds spéculatifs aux États-Unis sont exemptés des obligations de déclaration auprès de la Securities and Exchange Commission, ainsi que des restrictions prévues par la réglementation en ce qui concerne le levier financier ou les stratégies de négociation.

OBS

fonds de couverture : à l'origine, les gestionnaires de fonds de couverture utilisaient la stratégie longue-courte pour couvrir les risques de marché, d’où l'appellation «fonds de couverture», calque du terme anglais «hedge fund». Cette appellation constitue maintenant une impropriété lorsqu'elle sert à désigner un fonds qui comprend peu ou pas d’éléments de couverture.

Saskatchewan hunters and trappers recognize that healthy and diverse wildlife populations are a barometer of ecosystem. Their responsible conservation ethic and love of nature are making positive and vital contributions to the management and preservation of wildlife and wildlife habitat. This ensures that habitat, and thereby wildlife, is preserved for everyone to enjoy. The Wildlife Development Fund (WDF) was created when these users offered to pay more for hunting licences, provided the extra money was put into a special habitat conservation fund. In 1970, legislation was passed to create the Fund.
