Message from Ms Irina Bokova, Director-General of UNESCO, on the Occasion of the World Day of Audiovisual Heritage 教科文组织总干事伊琳娜·博科娃世界音像遗产日致辞 27 October 2016 2016年10月27日 World Day for Audiovisual Heritage is an opportunity to celebrate the importance of this heritage for all women and men and all societies. 世界音像遗产日为我们提供了一个机会,强调这一遗产对所有人和所有社会的重要性。1980年10月27日,教科文组织大会通过了《保护和保存活动图像建议书》。 October 27 marks the day in 1980 when the UNESCO General Conference adopted the Recommendation for the Safeguarding and Preservation of Moving Images – this is the first international instrument on the cultural and historical importance of film and television recordings, calling for decisive steps for their preservation. 这是涉及到电影和电视档案的文化价值与历史价值的首个国际文书,其中呼吁采取果断措施保护这一遗产。 It is your story – don’t lose it. 这是你的故事,别把它弄丢。 This is our theme this year. 这便是我们今年的主题。 Moving images, with sound recordings, are important records of our lives, holding much of our personal and social memory, essential to identity and belonging. This is why they must be preserved and shared as part of our common heritage. The stories told by this heritage are powerful expressions of culture and place, weaving together personal and collective experience, reflecting the search for meaning shared by all. This heritage provides an anchor in a world of change, especially for local communities, providing records of cultural activities, reflecting the great diversity of expressions. Promoting cohesion, archives are also integral to debates about future priorities, by preserving the diversity of stories and helping future generations understand what came before them. |
