**Analysis**
The text appears to be a report from the United Nations General Assembly, focusing on the International Year of the Family and the Human Rights Committee. It does not seem to be related to economic development, natural resources, industry, transport, communication, international trade, agriculture, forestry, fishing, or humanitarian aid.
