裘德·洛 | 2012年世界和平日致辭

Hi, I'm Jude Law and I'm an ambassador for Peace One Day. You may already know that Peace One Day led the initiative to establish the first ever annual day of global ceasefire and non-violence.Unanimously adopted by United Nations member states as the 21st of September peace day.

嗨，我是裘德·洛，也是“一日和平”組織的大使。您可能已經(jīng)知道，“一日和平”組織倡議設(shè)立了第一個(gè)全球?；鸷头潜┝θ?。聯(lián)合國(guó)會(huì)員國(guó)也一致同意將9月21日定為世界和平日。

In 2007, I traveled to Afghanistan with Jeremy Gilley, the founder and saw the day working firsthand. Since then 4.5 million children have been vaccinated against Polio in Afghanistan because of peace day.

2007年，我與創(chuàng)始人杰瑞米·吉利一起前往阿富汗，親眼目睹了這一天的工作。自和平日設(shè)立以來(lái)，阿富汗已有450萬(wàn)兒童成功接種了脊髓灰質(zhì)炎疫苗。

We saw incredible work by the United Nations, by UNICEF World Health Organization, UNAMA and other agencies. And then on Peace Day 2008, the UN announced a 70% reduction in violent incidents in Afghanistan. 

我們看到了聯(lián)合國(guó)、聯(lián)合國(guó)兒童基金會(huì)、世界衛(wèi)生組織、聯(lián)阿援助團(tuán)和其他機(jī)構(gòu)所做的令人難以置信的努力。在2008年的和平日，聯(lián)合國(guó)宣布將阿富汗的暴力事件減少百分之七十。

These successes led Jeremy to launch the global truce 2012 campaign, which we hope will be the largest reduction in global violence in recorded history on Peace Day 21st of September 2012, and the largest ever gathering of individuals in the name of peace.

這些成功促使杰瑞米在2012年發(fā)起了全球停戰(zhàn)運(yùn)動(dòng)，我們希望這將是2021年9月21日和平日有史以來(lái)最大規(guī)模的減少全球暴力的活動(dòng)，也是有史以來(lái)最大規(guī)模的以和平名義舉行的個(gè)人集會(huì)。

So this is where you come in. We're asking students in every country to lead this process on the 21st of September 2012.

所以這就是你們來(lái)參與的，我們要求每個(gè)國(guó)家的學(xué)生在2012年9月21日主導(dǎo)這一進(jìn)程。

Come together with friends hold an event, a debate, a concert, a film screening; any kind of sporting activity, a football match, a walk, a run, however you want to express yourself but do it on Peace Day. Bring people together, wherever you are and tell us what you're gonna do on the 27th of February here in London.

與朋友一起舉辦活動(dòng)、一場(chǎng)辯論、一場(chǎng)音樂(lè)會(huì)、放映一場(chǎng)電影；或者任何類型的體育活動(dòng)、足球比賽、散步、跑步。無(wú)論你想怎樣表達(dá)自己，只要在和平日去做。無(wú)論你身在何處，把人們聚集在一起，并告訴我們2月17日，你會(huì)在倫敦做什么。

We're holding a press launch with the National Union of students in the UK, and we're bringing in student leaders from around the world to kick-start the student campaign. Join us on Facebook and Twitter, to stay updated as the campaign grows. Thank you so much for your support!

我們正在與英國(guó)全國(guó)學(xué)生聯(lián)盟舉行新聞發(fā)布會(huì)，我們將邀請(qǐng)來(lái)自世界各地的學(xué)生領(lǐng)袖來(lái)啟動(dòng)學(xué)生運(yùn)動(dòng)。在Facebook和Twitter上加入我們，我們會(huì)時(shí)時(shí)更新活動(dòng)進(jìn)展。非常感謝你的支持！
