联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯世界青年技能日致辞

Today, we celebrate youth resilience, drive and innovation in times of COVID-19.
今天，我们为青年在冠状病毒病（COVID-19）疫情期间所展现的韧性、干劲和创新精神喝彩。
Young people were already facing disproportionate levels of unemployment and under-employment before the pandemic. More than one out of five youth were not in employment, education, or training, the majority of them young women.
本次疫情之前，青年人已面临格外严重的失业和就业问题。五分之一多年轻人没有就业、无法读书或得不到培训，其中大多数是女青年。
The COVID-19 pandemic has further aggravated this troubling situation. In many cases, it has forced organizations to pause skills development training. Distance learning posed a particular challenge for Technical Vocational Education and Training, particularly among marginalized youth.
冠状病毒病疫情进一步加剧了这个困局。许多机构的技能发展培训因疫情而被迫中断。远程学习对技术职业教育和培训，特别是边缘青年的培训，构成特别严峻的挑战。
To recover better, we must address the longstanding disparities and challenges faced by young people. That means ramping up skills development and education, with a particular focus on climate action, sustainable development, gender equality and inclusivity. It is crucial to boost investments in Technical Vocational Education and Training, broadband connectivity and digital skills.
为恢复得更好，我们必须克服青年人长期面临的差距和挑战。这意味着要大力开展技能发展和教育，特别关注气候行动、可持续发展、性别平等和包容各方。关键是要增加对技术职业教育和培训、宽带联通和数字技能的投资。
Young people drive solutions and must have a seat at the table, including in policy-making processes at the local, national, and global levels. Youth2030, the United Nations system-wide Youth Strategy, lays out the roadmap for the UN and partners to work for and with young people worldwide. I urge everyone to make the most of this framework and together, build an inclusive, fair and sustainable development for all.
是联合国全系统青年战略，为联合国及其伙伴提出了推动世界各地青年事业并与青年携手努力的路线图。我敦促大家充分利用这一框架，共同构建包容、公平和可持续的普惠发展。
I wish you a happy and productive World Youth Skills Day.
祝大家世界青年技能日快乐幸福、丰富多彩。
