1、联合国演讲稿联合国演讲稿（中英文 比照）Your excellence UN Secretary-General,President of the General Assembly,Executive Director of UN Women,And distinguished guests 敬重的秘书长阁下，大会主席阁下，妇女署执行主任阁下，以及尊贵的来宾们Today we are launching a campaign called HeForShe 今日我们将启动一项 HeForShe 的倡议活动I am reaching out to you because we need your

2、 help,we want to end gender inequality 此番演讲是为了获得您的支持，能让我们一道行动，终结性别不同等And to do this,we need everyone involved 实现这个目标须要每个人的参加This is the first campaign of its kind at the UN 这次我们开创了联合国发起的同类活动的先河 We want to try to galvanize as many men and boys as possible to be advocates for change，and we don’t

3、 just want to talk about it,We want to try and make sure that it’s tangible 我们希望能接力号召尽可能多的男人和男孩们，加入到寻求变更的提倡者行列，我们也不想仅仅开出空头支票，我们希望全力以赴，确保达成其实目标I was appointed as Goodwill Ambassador for UN Women six months ago，and the more I’ve spoken about feminism,the more I have realized that fighting

4、for women ’s right has too often become synonymous with men-hating 六个月前，我被任命为联合国妇女署的亲善大使，但我越是提及女权主义,越是意识到争取女性权益往往跟仇视男性混为一谈If there is one thing I know for certain it is that this has to stop 我非常确信的是，必需停止这种相识For the record feminism by definition is the belief that men and women should have equa

5、l rights and opportunities, 在此声明，从定义上来说女权主义是一种信念，认为男女应当具有同等权利和机遇It is the theory of the political economic and social equality of the sexes 也是政治经济以及社会的性别同等理论I started questioning gender-based assumptions a long time ago 很久之前我就起先质疑种种基于性别的预设When I was 8,I was confused about being called bossy, because

6、 I wanted to direct the plays,that we would put on for our parents，but the boys were not 当我 8 岁时，因为我想编排给家长们的演出就被斥为专横,而男孩不会受到同样的指责When at 14,I started to be sexualised by certain elements of the media, 当我 14 岁时，某些媒体起先渲染，我性感化的公众形象When at 15 my girlfriends started dropping out of their beloved sports t

7、eams,because they didn’t want to appearmuscle-y 当我 15 岁时，我的女挚友们纷纷退出她们心爱的运动队，因为她们不像看起来肌肉发达When at 18 my male friends were unable to express their feelings 当我 18 岁时，我的男性挚友们无法自如的表达他们的情感I decided that I was a feminist，and this seems uncomplicated to me那时我就确定成为一位女权主义者,对我来说这是件简洁明白的事But my recent res

8、earch has shown me that feminism has become an unpopular word，women are choosing not to identify as feminists. 但我近期的调查表明,女权主义已经变为不受欢迎的词汇,女人们不情愿被认为是女权主义者Apparently I am among the ranks of women whose expressions are seen as too strong too aggressive,isolating and anti-men,unattractive,even 很明显我被列为那类女

9、性,措辞强硬，过于激进，自我封闭一味反对男性，甚至缺乏魅力Why has the word become such an uncomfortable one 为何这个词已经让人如此不适I am form Britain,and I think it is wright that I am paid the same as my male counterparts,I think it is wright that I should be able to make decisions about my own body,I think it is right that women be invo

10、lved on my behalf in the policies and the decisions that affect my life,I think it is right that socially,I am afforded the same respect as men 我来自英国,我认为我应当获得与我男性同行同等的资金待遇，我认为我应当拥有自主支配自己身体的权利，我认为女性应当代表我参加到能影响我生活的政策制定中，我认为在社会上我也能赢得与男性同样的敬重But sadly I can say that there is no one country in the world

11、where all women can expect to receive these rights.No country in the world can yet say that they have achieved gender equality,these rights I consider to be human rights 缺憾的是，我可以说世界上任何一个国家的女性群体都未能完全拥有这些权利，至今无一国家能断言,他们已经实现了性别同等，这些权利我认为就是人权But I am one of the lucky ones,my life is a sheer privilege, b

12、ecause my parents didn’t love me less because I was born a daughter,My school did not limit me because I was a girl,my mentor didn’t assume that I would go less far because I might give birth to a child one day 但我无疑是幸运的，我始终享受着特别待遇，因为我的父母并没有因为我身为女儿就削减对我的关爱，我就读的学校也没有因为我是女孩就加以限制，我的导师也没有因为我日

13、后将为人母而对我不予厚望These influencers were the gender equality ambassadors that made me who I am today,they may not know it,but they are the inadvertent feminists,we need more of those and if you still hate the word,it is not the word that is important,it’s the idea and the ambition behind it,because

14、not all women have received the same rights that I have.In fact statistically very few have been 这些影响我的人们正如推广性别同等的大使，是他们成就了今日的我，或许他们并没有察觉，但他们就是那些无心插柳的女权主义者们。我们须要更多的这类人，假如你任然厌恶这个词，那么其实词本身不重要，重要的是词背后传递的理念和愿景，因为并不是全部女性都拥有和我一样的权利。事实上从数据上看只有很少一部分女性拥有这样的权利。In 1997 Hillary Clinton made a famous speech in B

15、eijing about women ’s rights,Sadly many of the things that she wanted to change,are still true today.But what stood out for me the most was that less than 30 percent of the audience were male !997 年，希拉里克林顿在北京就女性权利发表了一次闻名演讲，缺憾的是许多当时她力求变更的状况，在今日任然存在，但我更留意到男性观众少于 30的事实 How can we affect change in

16、 the world when only half of it is invited or feel welcome to participant in the conversation. 当世界上只有一半人口收到邀请激励加入到谈话中，我们又怎能奢望变更这个世界呢Men I would like to take this opportunity to extend your formal information,Gender equality is your issue too 男同胞们我想借此机会向你们发出正式邀请，性别同等也是你们的议题Because to date I’ve

17、seen my father’s role as a parent being valued less by society,despite my needing his presenceas a child as much as my mother’s 因为是指今日，我见证到最为家长，父亲的角色被社会所轻视,尽管孩童时代我须要父母赐予同样的关照I’ve seen young men suffering from mental illness unable to ask for help,for fear it would make them less of

18、 man ,or less of a man. 我看到年轻男性遭遇心理疾病的熬煎，而无法向外寻求帮助，因为胆怯这样看起来不男人，被人瞧不起In fact in the U.K.suicide is the biggest killer of man between 20 to 49 eclipsing road accidents,cancer and coronary heart disease 事实上在英国，自杀已经成为 20 到 49 岁男性的头号杀手，超越交通事故，癌症和冠心病I have seen men made fragile and insecure by a distorte

19、d sense of what constitutes male success,men don’t have the benefits of equality either 我目睹了男人们因为成为胜利男人这样偏狭的观念而变得脆弱和缺乏平安感，男人一样没能享受到同等带来的福利We don’t often talk about men being imprisoned by gender stereotypes,but I can see that they are 我们不常谈到男性同样，遭遇性别刻板印象的禁锢，但我能察觉到这点When they are free thi

20、ngs will change for women as a natural consequence,If men don’t have to be aggressive in order to be accepted,women won’t be compelled to be submissive,if men don;t have to control,women won’t have to be controlled 当他们不受束缚时，女性的状况就会自然而变更，假如男人不须要通过表现攻击性来或得认同，那么女人就不用逼迫自己显得听从，假如男人没必要实时

21、掌控，那么女人也不须要听命于掌控Both men and women should feel free to be sensitive,both men and women should feel free to be strong 不管是男是女都可以放任自己的铭感细腻，不管是男是女都可以培育自己的坚毅无畏It is time that we all perceive gender on a spectrum instead of two sets of opposing ideals 如今我们应当用更大的视野看待性别，而不是两套对立的规范If we should stop defining

22、each other by what we are not and start defining ourselves by who we are,we can all be freer and this is what HeForShe is about,It’s about freedom 假如我们能不再通过消减异性的特征来定义自己，而起先正视自己所拥有的一切特质，我们都将变得更自由，这就是 HeForShe 的意义所在，它与自由休戚相关I want men to take up this mantle so their daughters sisters and mothers

23、 can be free from prejudice,but also so their sons have permission to be vulnerable and human too 我希望男同胞们能传承这样的信念，那么他们的女儿们，姐妹们和母亲们都会免于遭遇卑视，同时他们的儿子们也有权利释放自己的脆弱和更人性化的一面We claim those parts of themselves they abandoned and in doing so be a more true and complete version of themselves 我们珍视他们所抛弃掉的那一部分人性我

24、们这样做是为了他们能够保留更为真实和完整的人性You might be thinking who is this Harry Potter girl and what is she doing speaking at the U.N. And it’s really good question,I’ve been asking myself the same thing,All I knowis that I care about this problem and I want to make it better,And having seen what I&rsquo

25、;ve seen,and given the chance,I fell it is my responsibility to say something你或许会问，这个哈利波特里 的女孩是干嘛的，她怎么会来联合国发表演说，这真是个好问题，我也曾反复问自己同样的问题，我只知道自己的确关切这个问题，也想尽绵薄之力改善现状，既然亲眼见到了这样的现状也获得这样的机会，我自觉有责任说些什么Statesmen Edmund Burke said all that is needed for the forces of evil to triumph is for good men and women t

26、o do nothing 政治家埃德蒙.伯克曾说过邪恶压制正义只须要和善的男男女女们坐视不理，麻木不仁In my nervousness for this speech and in my moment of doubt,I’ve told myself firmly, if not me,who? If not now,when？ 在我为演讲忐忑的时候，在我怀疑自己的时候，我坚决的告知自己，我不挺身，更待何人，此时无为，更待何时If you have similar doubts when opportunities are presented to you,I hope tha

27、t those words will be helpful,because the reality is that if we do nothing it will take 75 years orfor me or to be nearly 100 before woman can expect to be paid the same as men for the same work 假如当你面前有这样的机会，而你也有次困惑的话，我希望这句话能对你有所帮助。因为事实上，假如我们无所作为，那要等上 75 年，对我来说甚至是将近 100 年，才能期盼男性和女性实现同工同酬15.5 million

28、 girls will be married in the next 16 years as children and at the current rates,it won’t be until 2086 before all rural African girls can have a secondary education 接下来的十六年里将有 1550 万女孩，尚未成年就被迫嫁做人妇，而根据现在的进度，要直到 2086 年才能让全部的非洲女童都接受中等教化If you believe in equality,you might be one of those inadver

29、tent feminists that I spoke of earlier，and for this I applaud you 假如你怀有同等的信念，那你就可能是我之前提过的那些无心插柳的女权主义者。假如是这样，我会为你鼓掌We are struggling for a uniting word,but the good news is that we have a uniting movement.it is called HeForShe.I am inviting you to step forward to be seen and to ask yourselfIf not me,who？If not now,when? 我们任在为天下大同而奋战，但好消息是我们现在就有一个打一统的行动，这就是 HeForShe。我诚邀你们，自告奋勇扪心自问，我不挺身，更待何人，此时无为，更待何时。本文来源：网络收集与整理，如有侵权，请联系作者删除，谢谢！第13页 共13页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页第 13 页 共 13 页
