In celebration of International Women’s Day on 8 March, UN Women is celebrating its 2019 theme of “Think Equal, Build Smart, Innovate for Change”, along with hosting hundreds of festivities around the world through the organization’s global network. An official commemoration event is also being held at the UN Headquarters in New York that features UN Women Executive Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka and other senior UN officials as well as innovation leaders and gender experts.
为纪念3月8日的国际妇女节,联合国妇女署正在庆祝其2019年的主题为“思想平等,智慧建设,创新变革”,并通过该组织的全球网络在全球举办数百场庆祝活动。还在纽约联合国总部举行了一次官方纪念活动,其中包括联合国妇女署执行主任Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka和其他联合国高级官员以及创新领导人和性别问题专家。
When we approach planning with an innovative, ‘think equal’ mindset that takes the needs of women and girls into account right from inception, it is remarkable how different those plans can look, whether it is urban planning that designs for commuter safety, rural daycare centres that offer workers positive solutions for childcare, or the use of biometrics as ID to replace formal registration documents that many women may not have or control,” commented UN Under-Secretary-General and UN Women Executive Director Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka. “We look to industry leaders, game-changing start-ups, social entrepreneurs, gender equality activists and women innovators to find the ways in which innovation can remove barriers and accelerate progress for gender equality,” she said.
当我们从创新的“思想平等”思维方式开始实施规划时,从一开始就考虑到女性和女性的需求,这些计划看起来有多么不同,无论是通勤安全设计的城市规划,农村日托,都是非常值得注意的。联合国副秘书长兼联合国妇女署执行主任Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka评论说,这些中心为工人提供儿童保育的积极解决方案,或使用生物识别技术取代许多妇女可能没有或无法控制的正式登记文件。 “我们期待行业领导者,改变游戏规则的初创企业,社会企业家,性别平等活动家和女性创新者,找到创新可以消除障碍并加快性别平等进步的方式,”她说。
UN Women research indicates that 740 million women currently make their living in the informal economy with limited access to social protection, public services and infrastructure that could increase their productivity and income security.
联合国妇女署的研究表明,目前有7.4亿妇女在非正规经济中生活,获得社会保护,公共服务和基础设施的机会有限,可以提高她们的生产力和收入保障。
For example, women do 2.6 times more unpaid care and domestic work than men, with only 41 per cent of the world’s mothers with newborns receiving maternity benefits. One in three women are likely to face violence in their lifetimes, yet public services, urban planning and transport systems are rarely planned with women’s safety and mobility in mind. Therefore, this year’s focus brings innovation to the centre stage and leverages it for gender equality and women’s empowerment globally.
例如,女性的无偿护理和家务劳动的比例是男性的2.6倍,世界上只有41%的新生儿获得产妇福利。三分之一的女性可能在其一生中面临暴力,但公共服务,城市规划和交通系统很少考虑到女性的安全和行动能力。因此,今年的重点是将创新带入中心舞台,并将其用于性别平等和全球女性赋权。
Because current trajectories show existing interventions do not suffice to achieve a planet 50-50 by 2030, the Sustainable Development Goals, the UN’s road map for a sustainable future by 2030, requires transformative shifts, integrated approaches and new solutions. This is particularly true when it comes to SDG 5: Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls”, continued Ms. Mlambo-Ngcuka.
由于目前的轨迹显示现有的干预措施不足以在2030年之前实现50-50的行星,可持续发展目标,即联合国到2030年实现可持续未来的路线图,需要转变,综合方法和新的解决方案。在涉及可持续发展目标5:实现性别平等并赋予所有妇女和女孩权力时尤其如此“,Mlambo-Ngcuka女士继续说道。
Immediately following International Women’s Day is the 63rd session of the Commission on the Status of Women, being held 11- 22 March and focusing its priority theme on “social protection systems, access to public services and sustainable infrastructure for gender equality and the empowerment of women and girls.”
紧接国际妇女节之后的是妇女地位委员会第三十三届会议,该会议将于3月11日至22日举行,其重点是“社会保护制度,获得公共服务和可持续基础设施以促进两性平等和赋予妇女权力”还有女孩。“
