联合国秘书长潘基文 2010 消除贫穷国际日致辞 UN Secretary-General's Message on the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty 2010 October 17, 2010
2010 年 10 月 17 日 This year's observance of the International Day for the Eradication of
Poverty focuses on decent work, meaningful employment, income-generating livelihoods.In a word: jobs.
今年纪念国际消除贫困日的活动重点放在体面的工作、有意义的就业和创收生计。总之:是 关于就业问题。Decent and productive work is one of the most effective ways to fight poverty and build self-sufficiency.
体面的和生产性的工作是消除贫困和建立自给自足最有效的方法之一。Yet today, more than half the world's working population is in vulnerable employment.They lack formal work arrangements and social security, and often earn too little to provide for their families, let alone climb the ladder of economic opportunity.The global economic crisis has further pushed an estimated 64 million into poverty and unemployment is up by more than 30 million since 2007.
然而,今天,世界一半以上的劳动人口就业状况脆弱。他们缺乏正式的工作安排和社会保障,常常收入太少,无法养活家庭,更不用说改善经济状况。全球经济危机更是将约 6 400 万 人推向贫穷,自 2007 年以来,失业人口增加了 3 000 多万。How can we bridge the gap from poverty to decent work? By investing in economic and social policies that foster job creation;promoting decent labour conditions and deepening social protection systems.Access to education, public health and job training is also essential.
如何才能缩小贫穷与体面工作之间的差距?办法是在经济和社会政策方面投资,促进创造就 业机会;促进体面劳动条件,深化社会保障制度。获得教育、卫生和就业培训的机会也是必 不可少的。We must also put a special emphasis on youth employment.Young people are three times more likely to be unemployed than adults.Last year, more than 81 million young people were unemployed, the highest on record.One of the best ways for youth to see a future of hope is through the prism of a decent job.
我们还必须特别强调青年就业。年轻人比成年人失业可能性大三倍。去年,有 8 100 多万 年轻人失业,是历年最高的。能有体面的工作,才是年轻人能看到未来希望的最好方式之一。Last month at the Millennium Development Goals Summit in New York, world leaders agreed on an action agenda to intensify the global poverty fight.Despite encouraging advances in many corners of the globe, hundreds of millions of people still live in appalling conditions, lacking even the most basic
services.Addressing the global jobs crisis is central to changing this picture – to defeating poverty, strengthening economies and building peaceful and stable societies.

联合国秘书长潘基文2010国际非暴力日致辞时间:2010-10-05 15:55来源:口译网 作者:口译网 点击:413次
UN Secretary-General's Message on the International Day of Non-Violence New York, 2 October 2010
联合国秘书长潘基文2010国际非暴力日致辞 2010年10月2日
The International Day of Non-Violence marks the birth date of one of the doctrine's leading voices, Mahatma Gandhi.“Non-violence”, Gandhi said, “is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind.”
国际非暴力日正是坚守此项信念的主要代言人之一圣雄甘地的诞辰日。甘地说,“非暴力”“是人类最伟大的武器”。
We at the United Nations strive to harness the power of non-violence to overcome prejudice, end conflict, and cultivate mutual respect and understanding among peoples and countries.Indeed, the creed of non-violence echoes through the United Nations Charter: “To practice tolerance and live together in peace with one another as good neighbours”;“to ensure...that armed force shall not be used, save in the common interest.”
我们立足联合国,努力利用非暴力这一武器,克服偏见、结束冲突、增进人与人、国与国之间的相互尊重和了解。非暴力信条通过《联合国宪章》得到真实反映:“力行容恕,彼此以善邻之道,和睦相处”;“确保„„非为公共利益,不得使用武力”。
We work every day to bring these lofty principles to life.We do this by promoting human rights, seeking to resolve conflicts through peaceful means, campaigning to eliminate violence against women, working to achieve the Millennium Development Goals, and building bridges across cultures and countering hatred and extremism everywhere.我们每天都致力于将这些崇高原则落实在现实生活中。我们为此促进人权、寻求以和平手段解决冲突、发起消除对妇女的暴力行为的运动、努力实现千年发展目标、建造跨越文化的桥梁,以及反对任何地方出现的仇恨和极端主义。
This work cannot be left to governments or international organizations alone.Peace may be achieved around the negotiating table, but it is sustained around community tables.Peace starts with people--it flows from the hearts of committed women and men.Communities, families, and individuals all have a critical role to play in defeating violence and creating a culture of peace.这项工作不能光靠政府和国际组织来承担。和平或许可在谈判桌上实现,但是,和平只有放到社区的桌面上才能够维持。和平始于人们的心中,它发自致力于和平的男女的内心。无论是社区、家庭还是个人,在战胜暴力和创建和平文化方面都可扮演举足轻重的角色。
On this International Day of Non-Violence, let us work together to use the great force of non-violence to build peaceful and just societies for ourselves and for our children.在今天纪念国际非暴力日时,让我们共同努力,利用非暴力的伟大武器,为我们自己和我们的子孙建造和平与公正的社会。

第五篇:联合国秘书长潘基文国际寡妇日致辞
UN Secretary-General’s Message on International Widows’ Day June, 2011
联合国秘书长潘基文国际寡妇日致辞
2011年6月23日
2011年6月23日是国际寡妇日,今年是第一次开展国际寡妇日活动,联合国秘书长潘基文发表2011年国际寡妇日致辞.
This first International Widows’ Day is an occasion to call attention to the many “firsts” that women must face when their husbands die.In addition to coping with grief, they may find themselves for the first time since marriage without any social safety net.Far too often, widows lack access to inheritance, land tenure, employment and even the means to survive.今年是第一次开展国际寡妇日活动,在这个日子里,我们呼吁人们关注妇女在丈夫死亡后必须“第一次”面对的许多问题。妇女不仅陷入悲痛,而且还可能在结婚后第一次发现她们没有任何社会安全网。寡妇往往不能继承财产,没有土地保有权,不能就业,甚至没有生存的手段。
In places where a widow’s status is linked to her husband, she may find herself suddenly shunned and isolated.Marriage – whether she desires it or not – may be the only way for a widow to regain her footing in society.在寡妇的地位与丈夫紧密相联的地方,寡妇可能发现人们突然躲避她,她陷入孤立无援的境地。无论寡妇是否愿意,结婚可能是她在社会重新立脚的唯一途径。
Of the approximately 245 million widows in our world, more than 115 live in extreme poverty.In countries embroiled in conflicts, women are often widowed young and must bear the heavy burden of caring for their children amid fighting and displacement with no help or support.全世界约有2.45亿寡妇,其中超过1.15亿人生活极端贫困。在冲突不断的国家,妇女往往年轻就守寡,不得不在战火中和颠沛流离的生活中肩负起照顾子女的重担,她们得不到任何帮助或支持。
Some of these widows are teenagers – or even younger.The death of their husbands can leave a terrible legacy these widows must endure throughout their remaining years.一些寡妇仍然是少女,有的甚至更年轻。丈夫死亡后,给寡妇们留下的可能是终身噩梦。
All widows should be protected by the rights enshrined in the Convention on theElimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and other international human rights treaties.《消除对妇女一切形式歧视公约》和其他国际人权条约庄严载有各项权利,应可保护所有寡妇。
But in reality, interpretations of customary codes, as well as traditional mourning and burial rites, often deny widows virtually all of their universally recognized rights.但在现实中,对习惯法规的各种解读以及传统的丧葬礼仪往往剥夺了寡妇几乎所有的普遍公认权利。
Despite the many difficulties widows face, many make valuable contributions to their countries and communities.Some take on leadership roles at the highest levels.Others work in their families, taking in orphans, serving as caregivers and reaching across lines of conflict to mend tears in the social fabric.虽然寡妇面临许多困难,但许多人依然对国家和社区作出了宝贵贡献。一些人在最高级别发挥领导作用。其他人则在家里工作,收养孤儿,照顾他人,跨越冲突线,修补社会组织出现的裂痕。
We must recognize the important contribution of widows, and we must ensure that they enjoy the rights and social protections they deserve.我们必须承认寡妇的重要贡献,我们必须确保她们享有她们应得的权利和社会保障。
Death is inevitable, but we can reduce the suffering that widows endure by raising their status and helping them in their hour of need.This will contribute to promoting the full and equal participation of all women in society.And that will bring us closer to ending poverty and promoting peace around the world.死亡是不可避免的,但我们可以提高寡妇的地位,在她们最需要帮助的时刻帮助她们,减轻她们的痛苦。这将有助于促进所有妇女充分和平等地参与社会。而这又将使我们进一步接近消除贫穷和促进世界和平的目标。
