Message on International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination

消除種族歧視國際日致辭 March 2015

2015年3月21日

“Learning from past tragedies to combat racism today” “銘記歷史悲慘教訓，打擊當今的種族主義

Every day, people of all ages endure hatred, injustice and humiliation because of their skin colour, descent, national or ethnic origin, or other supposedly racial characteristics.Such discrimination has underpinned oppression, poverty, slavery, genocide and war.各國人民不論年齡差異，因其膚色、世系、國家或族裔血統或其他所謂的種族特征，每天都在遭受仇恨、不公正和侮辱。這種歧視構成了壓迫、貧窮、奴役、種族滅絕和戰爭的基礎。

The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination is an opportunity to renew our commitment to building a world of justice and equality where xenophobia and bigotry do not exist.We must learn the lessons of history and acknowledge the profound damage caused by racial discrimination.That means carefully preserving the memory of historical wrongs so we may use our knowledge to eradicate prejudice and teach tolerance, non-discrimination and respect for diversity everywhere and for all.值此消除種族歧視國際日，我們再次承諾要建立一個沒有仇外心理和偏見的公正和平等的世界。我們必須牢記歷史教訓，認識到種族歧視造成的極度破壞。這意味著，我們要仔細保存歷史錯誤的記憶，以便我們用知識消除偏見，并教育全體人民在任何地方都要厲行容忍、不歧視和尊重多樣化。

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination and the launch of the International Decade for People of African Descent.In the past fifty years, there has been progress in the fight against racism and racial discrimination.We have seen the end of colonialism, the dismantling of apartheid and the rise of a global movement for equality.Yet, as history and current events attest, racial discrimination still presents a clear danger to people and communities in all regions.今年是《消除一切形式種族歧視國際公約》和非洲人后裔國際十年啟動五十周年。五十年來，打擊種族主義和種族歧視斗爭取得了成果。我們親眼目睹了殖民主義的消亡和種族隔離的崩潰，一場平等運動在全球興起。但是，歷史和當今事件都已證明，種族歧視仍然對各個區域的人民和社區構成明顯的危險

Lasting peace can only be built on the premise that all people have equal rights and dignity – regardless of ethnicity, gender, religion, social or other status.To that end, I urge all nations to ratify the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, to promote historical accuracy and put in place robust policies and laws that will end all forms of discrimination as enshrined in the Convention.持久和平只能建立在這一基礎之上，即所有人民擁有平等的權利和尊嚴，而不論其族裔、性別、宗教、社會或其他地位。為此，我敦促所有國家批準《消除一切形式種族歧視國際公約》，并按照公約的規定，宣傳歷史的準確性，制訂有力的政策和法律，結束各種形式的歧視。

第二篇：聯合國秘書長潘基文2010消除貧窮國際日致辭

聯合國秘書長潘基文 2010 消除貧窮國際日致辭 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.

今年紀念國際消除貧困日的活動重點放在體面的工作、有意義的就業和創收生計。總之：是 關于就業問題。Decent and productive work is one of the most effective ways to fight poverty and build self-sufficiency.

體面的和生產性的工作是消除貧困和建立自給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，世界一半以上的勞動人口就業狀況脆弱。他們缺乏正式的工作安排和社會保障，常常收入太少，無法養活家庭，更不用說改善經濟狀況。全球經濟危機更是將約 6 400 萬 人推向貧窮，自 2007 年以來，失業人口增加了 3 000 多萬。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.

如何才能縮小貧窮與體面工作之間的差距？辦法是在經濟和社會政策方面投資，促進創造就 業機會；促進體面勞動條件，深化社會保障制度。獲得教育、衛生和就業培訓的機會也是必 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.

我們還必須特別強調青年就業。年輕人比成年人失業可能性大三倍。去年，有 8 100 多萬 年輕人失業，是歷年最高的。能有體面的工作，才是年輕人能看到未來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.

上個月
，在紐約舉行的千年發展目標首腦會議上，世界各國領導人商定了一項行動議程，以 加強全球對貧困的斗爭。盡管全球許多地方有令人鼓舞的進展，億萬人民仍然生活在惡劣的 條件下，甚至缺乏最基本的服務。解決全球就業危機是改變這種狀況的關鍵——也是對戰勝 貧困，加強經濟，以及建設和平與穩定的社會的關鍵。Widespread economic uncertainty and fiscal austerity excuses to do less.Rather, they are reasons to do more.should not be

普遍的經濟不確定狀況和財政緊縮政策不能是減少行動的借口。相反，它們應當是做出更多 努力的理由。On this International Day for the Eradication of Poverty, let us hear the voices of the poor and strive to expand job opportunities and safe working conditions everywhere.

值此國際消除貧困日，讓我們傾聽窮人的聲音，努力擴大世界各地的就業機會和改善安全的 工作條件。Let us work for a world of decent work for all.

讓我們共同致力于建設一個人人享有體面工作的世界。

Message on International Day of the Girl Child 國際女童日致辭 11 October 2014 2014年10月11日

All over the world, an alarming number of adolescent girls are assaulted, beaten, raped, mutilated and even murdered.The threat of violence at the hands of family members, partners, teachers and peers grossly violates their rights, diminishes their power and suppresses their potential.全世界遭到攻擊、毆打、強奸、殘割甚至殺害的少女人數之多令人震驚。來自家人、伴侶、教師和同伴的暴力威脅嚴重侵犯了她們的權利，削弱了她們的權能，抑制了她們的潛力。

This violence is exacerbated and reinforced by the multiple deprivations adolescent girls face, including unequal access to education, skills, information, sexual and reproductive health services, and social and economic resources.Girls are subjected to discriminatory social norms and harmful practices – such as female genital mutilation--that perpetuate a cycle of violence.A culture of impunity allows violence against adolescent girls to continue unabated.Conflict and humanitarian crises dramatically increase the risk of violence, abuse and exploitation.少女面臨多種權利被剝奪現象，包括無法平等獲得教育、技能、信息、性保健和生殖保健服務以及社會經濟資源，這種狀況加劇并加深了她們所受的暴力。女童受制于各種歧視性社會規范和有害習俗，例如殘割女性生殖器，而這些規范和習俗使暴力成為一種長期循環。有罪不罰文化使侵害少女的暴力行為得以持續存在，有增無減。沖突和人道主義危機也大大增加了發生暴力、虐待和剝削的風險。My UNiTE to End Violence against Women campaign is engaging governments, international organizations, civil society groups, the media and citizens everywhere to raise awareness and increase political will and resources for preventing and ending violence against women and girls.A parallel campaign – HeForShe –emphasizes that gender equality is not just a women’s issue by enrolling males to act against all forms of violence and discrimination against women and girls.As we define the post-2015 development framework and review progress achieved under the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, ending gender violence and promoting the empowerment of girls and women must beat the heart of our global agenda.我發起的聯合國制止暴力侵害婦女行為聯合運動正在促使世界各國政府、國際組織、民間社會團體、媒體和公民提高對暴力侵害婦女和女童行為的認識，加強預防和制止這類行為的政治意愿，并為此增加資源。另一個并行的運動——―男性促進女性權利‖——強調性別平等不只是女性的問題，它號召男性參與行動，消除對婦女和女童的一切形式的暴力和歧視。我們在界定2015年后發展框架以及審查《北京宣言和行動綱領》落實進展時，必須將消除性別暴力、增強女童和婦女權能置于我們全球議程的核心。

To end the cycle of violence against adolescent girls we must go beyond raising awareness and take action to equip girls with knowledge, skills, resources and power to determine their own path in life.We must provide them with safe transport, and access to sources of energy and water, quality health services and supportive environments that will allow them to thrive.為了消除循環不斷的侵害少女的暴力行為，我們除了提高認識之外，還必須行動起來，讓女童獲得知識、技能、資源和權能，從而決定自己的人生道路。我們必須為女童提供安全的交通，讓她們能夠獲得能源、水和優質保健服務，并給她們提供一個可以茁壯成長的支持性環境。

On this International Day of the Girl Child, I call on all governments to take action to end all forms of violence against girls in all parts of the world.Together, we must create a world where violence against women and girls is never tolerated and girls are always empowered to reach their full potential.在國際女童日，我呼吁各國政府采取行動，在世界各地消除一切形式的侵害女童暴力行為。我們必須共同努力，建設一個絕不容忍暴力侵害婦女和女童的世界，一個始終賦予女童權能、讓她們充分發揮潛力的世界。

第四篇：聯合國秘書長潘基文國際寡婦日致辭

UN Secretary-General’s Message on International Widows’ Day June, 2011

聯合國秘書長潘基文國際寡婦日致辭

2011年6月23日

2011年6月23日是國際寡婦日，今年是第一次開展國際寡婦日活動，聯合國秘書長潘基文發表2011年國際寡婦日致辭．

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.今年是第一次開展國際寡婦日活動，在這個日子里，我們呼吁人們關注婦女在丈夫死亡后必須“第一次”面對的許多問題。婦女不僅陷入悲痛，而且還可能在結婚后第一次發現她們沒有任何社會安全網。寡婦往往不能繼承財產，沒有土地保有權，不能就業，甚至沒有生存的手段。

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.在寡婦的地位與丈夫緊密相聯的地方，寡婦可能發現人們突然躲避她，她陷入孤立無援的境地。無論寡婦是否愿意，結婚可能是她在社會重新立腳的唯一途徑。

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.全世界約有2.45億寡婦，其中超過1.15億人生活極端貧困。在沖突不斷的國家，婦女往往年輕就守寡，不得不在戰火中和顛沛流離的生活中肩負起照顧子女的重擔，她們得不到任何幫助或支持。

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.一些寡婦仍然是少女，有的甚至更年輕。丈夫死亡后，給寡婦們留下的可能是終身噩夢。

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.《消除對婦女一切形式歧視公約》和其他國際人權條約莊嚴載有各項權利，應可保護所有寡婦。

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.但在現實中，對習慣法規的各種解讀以及傳統的喪葬禮儀往往剝奪了寡婦幾乎所有的普遍公認權利。

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.雖然寡婦面臨許多困難，但許多人依然對國家和社區作出了寶貴貢獻。一些人在最高級別發揮領導作用。其他人則在家里工作，收養孤兒，照顧他人，跨越沖突線，修補社會組織出現的裂痕。

We must recognize the important contribution of widows, and we must ensure that they enjoy the rights and social protections they deserve.我們必須承認寡婦的重要貢獻，我們必須確保她們享有她們應得的權利和社會保障。

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，但我們可以提高寡婦的地位，在她們最需要幫助的時刻幫助她們，減輕她們的痛苦。這將有助于促進所有婦女充分和平等地參與社會。而這又將使我們進一步接近消除貧窮和促進世界和平的目標。

第五篇：聯合國秘書長潘基文2011年國際青年日致辭

聯合國秘書長潘基文2011年國際青年日致辭

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s Message for International Youth Day 2011August, 2011

聯合國秘書長潘基文2011年國際青年日致辭

2011年8月12日

“Change Our World” is more than the theme of this year’s International Youth Day;it is an injunction that

should inspire young people at all times.“改變世界”不只是今年國際青年日的主題，而且是一條激勵各個時代青年人的訓喻。

Far too many of the world’s more than one billion young people lack the education, freedom and

opportunities they deserve.Yet despite these constraints – and in some cases because of them – young people are mobilizing in growing numbers to build a better future.Over the past year, they have achieved stunning results,overturning dictatorships and sending waves of hope across regions and around the world.在全世界10億多青年中，太多的人得不到他們應享的教育、自由和各種機會。然而，盡管存在這些限制，有些情況下正是因為這些限制，越來越多的青年為創造更美好的未來行動起來。過去一年中，他們取

得了令人矚目的成果，推翻了獨裁統治，將希望傳播到各區域和世界各地。

Young people are gifted with open minds and a keen awareness of emerging trends, and are bringing their energy, ideas and courage to some of the most complex and important challenges facing the human family.They often understand better than older generations that we can transcend our religious and cultural differences in order to reach our shared goals.They are standing up for the rights of oppressed peoples, including those who suffer discrimination based on gender, race and sexual orientation.They are confronting sensitive issues in order to stop

the spread of HIV.And they are often the leading proponents of sustainability and green life-styles.青年天生思想開放，可敏銳察覺新的趨勢，他們運用自己的能量、想法和勇氣來解決人類大家庭面臨的一些最為復雜和重要的挑戰。他們往往比老一輩人更明白，為達成共同的目標，我們可以超越宗教和文化的差異。他們挺身維護受壓迫人民的權利，包括那些因性別、種族和性取向而遭受歧視的人們的權利。為了遏制艾滋病毒的蔓延，他們勇敢面對敏感問題。他們還常常帶頭提倡可持續性和綠色生活方式。The international community must continue to work together to expand the horizons of opportunity for these young women and men and answer their legitimate demands for dignity, development and decent work.Failing to invest in our youth is a false economy.Investments in young people will pay great dividends in a better future for

all.國際社會必須繼續共同努力，為這些青年男女擴展各種機會空間，回應他們對尊嚴、發展和體面工作的合法需求。不對青年進行投資，將是失敗的經濟。而投資于青年將帶來豐厚回報，為所有人創造一個更

美好的未來。

This Day marks the end of the International Year of Youth, a milestone in global advocacy by and for the world’s young people.My hope is that this experience will now provide a foundation to go even further in harnessing the talents and energies of young people.To them I say: you have the opportunity to change our world.Seize it.在全世界青年參與為他們開展的全球宣傳中，國際青年年是一個里程碑。今天是國際青年年結束的日子。我希望通過此次活動，為進一步利用青年人的才智和能量打下基礎。我要對青年人說：你們有機會改

變世界，抓住機遇！
