	Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan
		The widely respected international civil servant Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan, who has died of cancer aged 70, was never able to repeat the achievements of his 12 years as United Nations high commissioner for refugees (UNHCR), and failed in two attempts to be elected UN secretary-general.
		Sadruddin saw himself as a citizen of the world - a multilingual, highly cultured cosmopolitan, familiar with the upper echelons of international society, who nevertheless became passionately involved with the plight of successive and growing waves of refugees and the seemingly insoluble problems of resettlement.
		Sadruddin was helped and encouraged by his second wife, Catherine, whom he married in 1972.

		Sadruddin Aga Khan will be a sorely missed source of inspiration to conservation, human rights and animal welfare – just some of the key areas that composed his holistic view of the world.
