In every corner of the world, young people face a whirlwind of change – technological advancements, a rapidly changing job market, demographic shifts, climate challenges, and learning losses due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
在世界每一个角落,年轻人都面临着旋风般的变化——技术进步,快速变化的就业市场,人口结构变化,气候挑战以及COVID-19大流行造成的学习损失。
Equipping young people with quality education, training and skills is essential. This World Youth Skills Day reminds us that teachers stand at the forefront of this great global effort.
为年轻人提供优质教育、培训和技能至关重要。今年的世界青年技能日提醒我们,教师站在这一伟大全球努力的最前沿。
We must ensure that teachers gain the education and professional development opportunities they need as they help young people make the transition from school to the workplace. I recently launched the High-Level Panel on the Teaching Profession to provide recommendations to help achieve this.
我们必须确保教师获得所需的教育和专业发展机会,帮助年轻人从学校过渡到工作场所。我最近成立了教师职业高级别小组,为实现这一目标提供建议。
And we need to dramatically scale-up investment in education and training systems and technologies worldwide so teachers can provide inclusive and flexible learning opportunities for young people no matter where they live.
我们需要大幅增加对全球教育和培训系统及技术的投资,以便教师能够为年轻人提供包容性和灵活的学习机会,无论他们生活在哪里。
Humanity's future depends on the boundless energy, ideas and contributions of young people. On this day, and every day, let's stand with teachers as they, in turn, help young people gain the education and skills required to shape a better, more sustainable future for us all.
人类未来取决于年轻人的无限活力、思想和贡献。今天,以及每一天,让我们与教师站在一起,是他们帮助年轻人获得必要的教育和技能,为我们所有人塑造一个更美好、更可持续的未来。
