Secretary-General’s Message on World Telecommunication and Information Society Day

世界電信和信息社會日致辭

New York, 17 May 201

12011年5月17日

Information and communication technologies have transformed the global landscape.They power the world economy and have become the great enablers of modern society, helping people communicate across distances and cultural divides, facilitating trade and commerce, and providing access to critical resources such as healthcare and education.信息和通信技術(shù)改變了全球面貌。這些技術(shù)為世界經(jīng)濟(jì)提供動力，有力推動了現(xiàn)代社會的發(fā)展，幫助人們逾越溝通的距離和文化差距，為貿(mào)易和商業(yè)提供便利，并提供獲取保健和教育等至關(guān)重要資源的機(jī)會。

Recent events around the world, in particular in North Africa and the Middle East, have also highlighted the catalytic role that mobile phones and social media can play in galvanizing public opinion against repression.And in the aftermath of natural disasters that have struck with greater frequency and force, we have seen how these technologies are a vital part of the aid response, establishing lines of communication that can save lives, reunite families and help emergency relief reach people in need.世界各地、特別是北非和中東近期發(fā)生的事件還突出說明，手機(jī)和社交媒體可在激發(fā)反對壓制的公眾輿論方面發(fā)揮催化作用。此外，我們已看到，在越來越頻繁、破壞力越來越大的自然災(zāi)害發(fā)生后，信息和通信技術(shù)可在救援中發(fā)揮關(guān)鍵作用，開通通信線路可拯救生命，使家人團(tuán)聚，并幫助陷于困境的人們獲得緊急救濟(jì)。

The theme of this year’s observance, “Better life in rural communities with ICTs”, highlights the need to harness the full potential of ICTs for the benefit of the world's rural population.Seventy per cent of the developing world's 1.4 billion extremely poor people live in rural areas.Their lives can be transformed as we connect village schools to information and knowledge on the Internet, bring telemedicine to far-flung rural health centres, provide accurate weather information to farmers and fishermen, and supply up-to-date market information to producers.今年慶祝活動的主題、“借助信息和通信技術(shù)讓農(nóng)村社區(qū)生活更加美好”，突出的是有必要充分利用信通技術(shù)的潛力，造福世界農(nóng)村人口。在發(fā)展中國家14億赤貧人口中，70%的人生活在農(nóng)村地區(qū)。如果我們將鄉(xiāng)村學(xué)校與因特網(wǎng)的信息和知識連通，將遠(yuǎn)距醫(yī)學(xué)送抵偏遠(yuǎn)的農(nóng)村保健中心，讓農(nóng)民和漁民獲得準(zhǔn)確的天氣資料，讓農(nóng)業(yè)生產(chǎn)者得到最新市場信息，這些赤貧者的生活可以改變。

The International Telecommunication Union and its partners continue striving to connect the world.I welcome these efforts, especially the drive to bring broadband to every community.Broadband telecommunications will make it possible to drive content to the remotest rural districts.國際電信聯(lián)盟及其伙伴繼續(xù)為連通世界而努力。我歡迎這些努力，特別是讓寬帶深入每一社區(qū)的舉措。寬帶通信可將資訊送到最偏遠(yuǎn)的農(nóng)村地區(qū)。

As we bridge the digital divide, we narrow the chasm that separates those with and without access to information and knowledge, thereby broadening opportunities for a better life.Greater access means earlier achievement of the Millennium Development Goals.It means less poverty and hunger, and more environmental sustainability.And it translates into greater equality and empowerment for women and the underprivileged.在我們彌合數(shù)字鴻溝的時候，也會縮小把有機(jī)會獲取信息和知識的人與沒有這樣機(jī)會的人隔開的鴻溝，從而拓寬更多人改善生活的機(jī)會。擴(kuò)大機(jī)會意味著盡早實現(xiàn)千年發(fā)展目標(biāo)，意味著貧困和饑餓減少以及環(huán)境可持續(xù)性增強，并將推動實現(xiàn)婦女和弱勢群體的平等與賦權(quán)。

On this World Telecommunication and Information Society Day, let us resolve to connect rural communities and the entire world to the digital revolution as a means of achieving our development goals and fostering peace and prosperity for all.值此世界電信和信息社會日之際，讓我們堅定決心，實現(xiàn)農(nóng)村社區(qū)和整個世界與數(shù)字革命的連通，以此推動實現(xiàn)發(fā)展目標(biāo)，促進(jìn)人人皆享有和平與繁榮。

UN Secretary-General's Message on the International Day of Non-Violence New York, 2 October 2010

聯(lián)合國秘書長潘基文2010國際非暴力日致辭 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.”

國際非暴力日正是堅守此項信念的主要代言人之一圣雄甘地的誕辰日。甘地說，“非暴力”“是人類最偉大的武器”。

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.”

我們立足聯(lián)合國，努力利用非暴力這一武器，克服偏見、結(jié)束沖突、增進(jìn)人與人、國與國之間的相互尊重和了解。非暴力信條通過《聯(lián)合國憲章》得到真實反映：“力行容恕，彼此以善鄰之道，和睦相處”；“確保??非為公共利益，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.我們每天都致力于將這些崇高原則落實在現(xiàn)實生活中。我們?yōu)榇舜龠M(jìn)人權(quán)、尋求以和平手段解決沖突、發(fā)起消除對婦女的暴力行為的運動、努力實現(xiàn)千年發(fā)展目標(biāo)、建造跨越文化的橋梁，以及反對任何地方出現(xiàn)的仇恨和極端主義。

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.這項工作不能光靠政府和國際組織來承擔(dān)。和平或許可在談判桌上實現(xiàn)，但是，和平只有放到社區(qū)的桌面上才能夠維持。和平始于人們的心中，它發(fā)自致力于和平的男女的內(nèi)心。無論是社區(qū)、家庭還是個人，在戰(zhàn)勝暴力和創(chuàng)建和平文化方面都可扮演舉足輕重的角色。

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.在今天紀(jì)念國際非暴力日時，讓我們共同努力，利用非暴力的偉大武器，為我們自己和我們的子孫建造和平與公正的社會。

第三篇：聯(lián)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(lián)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(lián)合國秘書長潘基文發(fā)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(guān)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(jié)婚后第一次發(fā)現(xiàn)她們沒有任何社會安全網(wǎng)。寡婦往往不能繼承財產(chǎn)，沒有土地保有權(quán)，不能就業(yè)，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(lián)的地方，寡婦可能發(fā)現(xiàn)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(jié)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(zhàn)火中和顛沛流離的生活中肩負(fù)起照顧子女的重?fù)?dān)，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(quán)條約莊嚴(yán)載有各項權(quán)利，應(yīng)可保護(hù)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(xiàn)實中，對習(xí)慣法規(guī)的各種解讀以及傳統(tǒng)的喪葬禮儀往往剝奪了寡婦幾乎所有的普遍公認(rèn)權(quán)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(qū)作出了寶貴貢獻(xiàn)。一些人在最高級別發(fā)揮領(lǐng)導(dǎo)作用。其他人則在家里工作，收養(yǎng)孤兒，照顧他人，跨越?jīng)_突線，修補社會組織出現(xiàn)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(rèn)寡婦的重要貢獻(xiàn)，我們必須確保她們享有她們應(yīng)得的權(quán)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(jìn)所有婦女充分和平等地參與社會。而這又將使我們進(jìn)一步接近消除貧窮和促進(jìn)世界和平的目標(biāo)。

Secretary-General Message on World Telecommunication and Information Society Day New York, 17 May 2010

聯(lián)合國秘書長2010世界電信和信息社會日致辭

2010年5月17日

In today's world, telecommunications are more than just a basic service – they are a means to promote development, improve society and save lives.This will be all the more true in the world of tomorrow.在當(dāng)今世界，電信不僅僅是一項基本服務(wù)，而是一種促進(jìn)發(fā)展、改進(jìn)社會和拯救生命的手段。未來的世界將更是如此。

The importance of telecommunications was on display in the wake of the earthquake which devastated Haiti earlier this year.Communications technologies were used to coordinate aid, optimize resources and provide desperately sought information about the victims.The International Telecommunications Union(ITU)and its commercial partners contributed scores of satellite terminals and helped to provide wireless communications to help disaster relief and clean-up efforts.在今年初發(fā)生了摧毀海地的地震之后，電信的重要性體現(xiàn)出來。通信技術(shù)被用來協(xié)調(diào)援助、優(yōu)化資源和提供迫切需要的傷之人員的信息。國際電信聯(lián)盟及其商業(yè)伙伴捐贈了數(shù)十部衛(wèi)星終端，并幫助提供無線通信服務(wù)，以協(xié)助救災(zāi)和清理工作。

I welcome those efforts and, more broadly, the work of ITU and others to promote broadband access in rural and remote areas around the world.對于這些努力，更廣泛地講，對于電聯(lián)和其他各方促進(jìn)世界各地農(nóng)村和偏遠(yuǎn)地區(qū)寬帶接入的工作，我表示歡迎。

Greater access can mean faster progress toward the Millennium Development Goals(MDGs).The Internet drives trade, commerce and even education.Telemedicine is improving health care.Earth monitoring satellites are being used to address climate change.And green technologies are promoting cleaner cities.更廣泛的寬帶接入可能意味著在實現(xiàn)千年發(fā)展目標(biāo)方面取得更快的進(jìn)展。因特網(wǎng)推動了貿(mào)易、商業(yè)、甚至教育的發(fā)展。遠(yuǎn)程醫(yī)療正在改善保健服務(wù)。地球監(jiān)測衛(wèi)星正被用于應(yīng)對氣候變化。綠色技術(shù)正在使城市更加清潔。

As these innovations grow in importance, so, too, does the need to bridge the digital divide.隨著這些創(chuàng)新的重要性日益加強，也越來越有必要彌補數(shù)字鴻溝。

The theme of this year's observance, “Better Cities, Better Life with ICTs,” is a reminder that communications technologies must be employed – and disposed of – in a manner that raises living standards while protecting the environment.今年的紀(jì)念活動以“利用信通技術(shù)優(yōu)化城市和生活”為主題，它提醒我們，必須以提高生活水平并同時保護(hù)環(huán)境的方式采用和處理通信技術(shù)。

The United Nations is committed to ensuring that people everywhere have equitable access to information and communication technologies.On this International Day, let us resolve to fully harness the great potential of the digital revolution in the service of life-saving relief operations, sustainable development and lasting peace.聯(lián)合國致力于確保任何地方的人們均可公平地利用信息和通信技術(shù)。值此國際日之際，讓我們下定決心，在拯救生命的救濟(jì)活動、可持續(xù)發(fā)展和持久和平中充分發(fā)揮數(shù)字革命的巨大潛力。
