特鲁多总理夫妇2017年国际青年日视频致辞

国际青年日是全世界革命青年反帝国主义、反军国主义、反世界大战的纪念日。1999年12月17日，在第54/120号决议中，联合国大会赞同主管青年事物部长世界会议提出的建议，决定将每年的8月12日定为“国际青年日”，大会还建议组织宣传活动支持青年日，提高人们对大会1995年通过的《到2000年及其后世界青年行动纲领》的认识。

国际青年日为争取多方面支持和重要行为人的参与提供一个绝佳的机会。各国政府、非政府组织、学术机构、工商界以及青年将携手合作，回顾过去取得的成绩，使世界青年行动纲领发挥更大作用。

Message by PM Justin Trudeau and Sophie Grégoire Trudeau on the International Youth Day

August 12, 2017

Prime Minister Trudeau: Hello, everyone! Happy International Youth Day!

Sophie Grégoire Trudeau: Today, we celebrate young people – your power, your potential and your dreams.

Prime Minister Trudeau: Everywhere we go, we meet young people who are following their passions and making a difference in the world. You’re constantly finding creative new ways to serve your communities and you bring energy and drive to tackle the greatest challenges we face: from climate change, to making gender equality a reality, to building a more just and inclusive world.

Sophie Grégoire Trudeau: You are all leaders in your own right. So, as you make your way through this world, make sure you listen to your intuition, your inner voice and your heart. Pay attention to what matters most to you, what lights you up, and question the people, the TV shows, the social media commentaries – whatever it is that hurts you or makes you doubt your own self-worth. Prime Minister Trudeau: How do you see yourself making positive change? What’s your vision for your community and our world? We want to make sure you have the tools you need to make a difference where it matters to you.

Sophie Grégoire Trudeau: We also know that being young isn’t easy. We’ve been there, right? It’s so important to take care of yourself. You know, when I told my story, I felt vulnerable. But it was part of my road to recovery. So, be vulnerable. Be real. Share your stories and your struggles because you could save yourself or someone else in the process.

Prime Minister Trudeau: Thank you, from Sophie and me, for everything you do to bring positive change to our world. We’re in this together and finding our ways of making a difference. So, support each other, be bold and dream big.

Sophie Grégoire Trudeau: Bye, guys!
