原文及翻译
Let us honor our own parent sacrifice by creating a path for a more fair, farther-reaching truth to define all of our lives, especially the lives of our children because paid parental leave does more than give more time for parents to spend with their kids. It changes the story of what children observe and will from themselves imagine possible.
让我们为父母的牺牲致敬，为更公平、更深远的真理开辟一条道路，以定义我们所有人的生活，特别是我们孩子的生活，因为带薪育儿假的作用不仅仅是让父母有更多时间陪伴孩子。它改变了孩子们所观察到的故事，并会让他们自己想象出可能发生的事情。
I see cause for hope in my own country, the United States, currently the only high-income country in the world without paid maternity, let alone parental leave. Great work has begun in the states of New York, California, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and Washington, which are currently all implementing paid parental leave programs.
我看到了希望的理由，我的国家，美国，目前是世界上唯一一个没有带薪产假的高收入国家，更不用说育儿假了。纽约州、加利福尼亚州、新泽西州、罗德岛州和华盛顿州已经开始了伟大的工作，目前这些州都在实施带薪育儿假计划。
First Lady Cherlene Mcrae and Mayor Bill de Blasio have granted paid parental leave to over 20,000 government employees in New York City. We can do this. Bringing about change cannot just be the responsibility of those who need it most. We must have the support of those in the highest levels of power if we are ever to achieve parity.
第一夫人 Cherlene Mcrae 和市长 Bill de Blasio 已为纽约市 20,000 多名政府雇员提供带薪育儿假。我们可以做到这一点。带来改变不能只是那些最需要改变的人的责任。如果我们要实现平等，就必须得到最高权力阶层的支持。
That is why it's such an honor to recognize and congratulate pioneers of paid parental leave like the global company Danone. Today, I am proud to announce Danone Global CEO Emmanuel Faber as our inaugural HeForShe Thematic Champion for Paid Parental Leave.
这就是为什么我很荣幸能够表彰和祝贺像达能这样的跨国公司这样的带薪育儿假先驱。今天，我很自豪地宣布达能全球首席执行官 Emmanuel Faber 成为我们的首任 HeForShe 带薪育儿假主题倡导者。
As part of this announcement, Danone will implement a global 18-week gender-neutral paid parental leave policy for the company's 100,000 employees by the year 2020. Monsieur Faber, when Ambassador Emma Watson delivered her now iconic HeForShe speech and stated that if we live in a world where men occupy a majority of positions of power, we need men to believe in the necessity of change, I believe she was speaking about visionaries like you, Monsieur Faber.
作为此次公告的一部分，达能将在 2020 年前为公司 10 万名员工实施一项全球 18 周的性别中立带薪育儿假政策。Faber 先生，当大使 Emma Watson 发表她现在标志性的 HeForShe 演讲并表示，如果我们生活在一个男性占据大多数权力位置的世界，我们需要男性相信改变的必要性时，我相信她指的是像您这样的梦想家，Faber 先生。
Imagine what the world could look like one generation from now if a policy like Danone's becomes the new standard. If 100,000 people become 100 million, a billion more. Every generation must find their north. When women around the world demanded the right to vote, we took a fundamental step towards equality. When same-sex marriage was passed in the US, we put an end to a discriminatory north.
想象一下，如果像达能这样的政策成为新标准，一代人之后的世界会是什么样子。如果 10 万人变成 1 亿人，再增加 10 亿人。每一代人都必须找到自己的方向。当全世界的女性要求投票权时，我们朝着平等迈出了根本性的一步。当美国通过同性婚姻时，我们结束了北方的歧视。
When millions of men and boys and prime ministers and deputy directors of the UN—sorry, the President of the General Assembly (that's what happens when I go off script)—when men like the men in this room and around the world, the ones we cannot see, the ones who support us in ways we cannot know but we feel, when they answered Emma Watson's call to be HeForShe, the world grew.
当数以百万计的男人和男孩、各国总理和联合国副主任——对不起，是联合国大会主席（这就是我偏离剧本时发生的事情）——当像这个房间里和世界各地的男人一样的男人，那些我们看不见的人，那些以我们无法知道但能感觉到的方式支持我们的人，当他们响应艾玛·沃特森的号召成为“他为她”时，世界就成长了。
We must ask ourselves, how will we be more tomorrow than we are today? The whole world grows when people like you and me take a stand because we know that beyond the idea of how men and women are different, there is a deeper truth—that love is love, and parents are parents. Thank you.
我们必须扪心自问，明天的我们怎样才能比今天更优秀？当像你我这样的人站出来时，整个世界就会成长，因为我们知道，除了男女之间的差异之外，还有一个更深刻的真理——爱就是爱，父母就是父母。谢谢。
