Message from Ms. Irina Bokova, Director-General of UNESCO, on the Occasion of the World AIDS Day 教科文组织总干事伊琳娜·博科娃女士在世界艾滋病日的致辞 1 December 2016 2016年12月1日 UNESCO believes in education as the cornerstone of a sustainable and effective approach to HIV prevention. According to the 2016 Prevention Gap report, two-thirds of young people do not have correct and comprehensive knowledge of HIV. This, combined with such other factors as lack of access to services, stigma, discrimination, and structural inequalities, leads to a disproportionate impact for certain populations. 教科文组织认为，教育是持久有效的艾滋病预防方针的根基所在。根据2016年《艾滋病预防差距报告》，三分之二的年轻人对艾滋病没有正确和全面的认识。这种现象，结合诸如缺乏服务、遭受侮辱、歧视和结构性不平等等其他因素，对某些人群产生了严重影响。 For example, despite significant efforts to strengthen the AIDS response, there are almost 2000 new HIV infections each week among adolescent girls and young women in South Africa. Education alone is not a magic bullet for prevention, but without it, other prevention approaches – whether it be condoms or pre-exposure prophylaxis – will never achieve their full promise. 例如，尽管为加强艾滋病防治做出了重大努力，在南非的少女和青年妇女群体中，每周仍有将近 2000例新的艾滋病毒感染。教育本身不是预防的灵丹妙药，但没有它，其他预防手段，无论是避孕套还是接触前预防，都永远不会做到万无一失。 |
