應(yīng)對和抗擊疫情之下仇恨言論的全球呼吁

雙語版原文如下

2019冠狀病毒病不在乎我們是誰，我們住在哪里，我們相信什么，也不在乎我們在任何其他方面的區(qū)別。為共同抗擊這一病毒，我們所需的團(tuán)結(jié)絲毫不可少。然而，這場大流行病卻在繼續(xù)引發(fā)仇恨和仇外、制造替罪羊以及散布恐慌的海嘯。

COVID-19 does not care who we are, where we live, what we believe or about any other distinction. We need every ounce of solidarity to tackle it together. Yet the pandemic continues to unleash a tsunami of hate and xenophobia, scapegoating and scare-mongering.

網(wǎng)上和街頭的排外情緒高漲。反猶太的陰謀論已在泛濫，與2019冠狀病毒病有關(guān)的反穆斯林襲擊事件也時(shí)有發(fā)生。移民和難民被污蔑為病毒的源頭之一，然后又受阻拒而無法獲得治療。

Anti-foreigner sentiment has surged online and in the streets. Anti-Semitic conspiracy theories have spread, and COVID-19-related anti-Muslim attacks have occurred. Migrants and refugees have been vilified as a source of the virus-- and then denied access to medical treatment.

對屬于最脆弱群體的老年人，現(xiàn)在竟出現(xiàn)一種令人不齒的社會(huì)模因，即認(rèn)為老年人是最可被犧牲掉的群體。還有一些記者、舉報(bào)人、衛(wèi)生專業(yè)人員、援助人員和人權(quán)捍衛(wèi)者因盡職盡責(zé)而成為攻擊目標(biāo)。

With older persons among the most vulnerable, contemptible memes have emerged suggesting they are also the most expendable. And journalists, whistleblowers, health professionals, aid workers and human rights defenders are being targeted simply for doing their jobs.

現(xiàn)在我們必須采取行動(dòng)，加強(qiáng)我們社會(huì)對仇恨這一病毒的免疫力。正因如此，我今天要呼吁全力以赴制止全球范圍內(nèi)的仇恨言論。我呼吁政治領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人聲援其社會(huì)的所有成員，建立并加強(qiáng)社會(huì)凝聚力。

We must act now to strengthen the immunity of our societies against the virus of hate. That’s why I’m appealing today for an all-out effort to end hate speech globally. I call on political leaders to show solidarity with all members of their societiesand build and reinforce social cohesion.

如今數(shù)以十億計(jì)的青年在線，而且極端分子正千方百計(jì)捕獵那些被困且可能處于絕望之中的受眾，在這樣的情況下，我呼吁教育機(jī)構(gòu)要集中力量解決數(shù)字素養(yǎng)問題。

I call oneducational institutions to focus on digital literacyat a time when billions of young people are online – and when extremists are seeking to prey on captive and potentially despairing audiences.

我呼吁媒體，特別是社交媒體公司加大力度，采取更多措施警示并依照國際人權(quán)法清除種族主義的、厭惡女性的和其他有害內(nèi)容。

I call on the media, especially social media companies, to do much more to flag and, in line with international human rights law, remove racist, misogynist and other harmful content.

我呼吁民間社會(huì)加強(qiáng)對弱勢群體的主動(dòng)宣傳聯(lián)絡(luò)，并呼吁宗教行為者成為相互尊重的楷模。

I call on civil societyto strengthen outreach to vulnerable people, and religious actorsto serve as models of mutual respect.

我要請所有的地方所有的人都起來反對仇恨，有尊嚴(yán)地彼此相待，抓住每一個(gè)機(jī)會(huì)傳播善意。

And I ask everyone, everywhere, to stand up against hate, treat each other with dignity and take every opportunity to spread kindness.

去年，我啟動(dòng)了《聯(lián)合國消除仇恨言論戰(zhàn)略和行動(dòng)計(jì)劃》，旨在加強(qiáng)聯(lián)合國消除仇恨言論這一禍害的努力。在我們抗擊目前大流行病的同時(shí)，我們也有責(zé)任保護(hù)人民，制止污名化，防止暴力。

Last year, I launchedthe United Nations Strategy and Plan of Action on Hate Speechto enhance United Nations efforts against this scourge. As we combat this pandemic, we have a duty to protect people, end stigma and prevent violence.

讓我們同心協(xié)力，戰(zhàn)勝仇恨言論，戰(zhàn)勝2019冠狀病毒病。

Let’s defeat hate speech – and COVID-19 - together.
