What would the world be without recorded traces of our past? Nobel laureate Elie Wiesel offers one answer: “Without memory, there is no culture. Without memory, there would be no civilization, no society, no future.”文章源自英文巴士-https://www.en84.com/14924.html

Documentary heritage, including audiovisual heritage, bears witness to this memory – the unfolding of human thought and events; the evolution of languages, cultures, peoples. It allows us to observe events we did not participate in, listen to sounds from long ago, and visit places that no longer exist.
包括音像遗产在内的文献遗产见证了这种记忆，其中记载着人类思想与历史事件的发展，以及语言、文化、民族的演变。我们由此得以审视自己未曾参与的历史事件，倾听久远过去的声音，参观已经不复存在的场所。
Today, this heritage is an essential source of information – a reservoir of knowledge that encourages inter-cultural dialogue and understanding, and therefore fosters peace.
如今，这项遗产是一种重要的信息来源，作为知识的宝库，它发挥着鼓励文化间对话与理解从而促进和平的作用。
We see this, for example, in the powerful and poignant message of love, hope and kindness in the face of cruelty, conveyed in the 1939 film The Wizard of Oz. We see it in the passionate plea for social justice immortalized in Los olvidados, a film by Luis Buñuel.
例如，我们在1939年的电影《绿野仙踪》中就可以看到其中所传递的残酷环境中充满爱、希望和善良的强烈且深刻信息。而路易斯·布努埃尔的电影《被遗忘的人们》中对社会正义的热切吁求，也永久被人铭记在心。
That is why, every year on 27 October, we celebrate the World Day for Audiovisual Heritage – to ensure that this heritage, which can be especially fragile, is protected in memory institutions worldwide, to make it readily available to all, and to promote its use and re-use as a fundamental freedom.
因此，每年10月27日，我们都会庆祝世界音像遗产日，以确保这项或许尤为脆弱的文献遗产在世界各地的记忆机构中得到保护，使所有人能够随时获取这项遗产，并将其利用和再利用作为一项基本自由来加以促进。
Over the past three decades, the UNESCO Memory of the World Programme has worked towards these goals by galvanizing international cooperation. With nearly 500 inscriptions – including 64 in 2023 – the Memory of the World International Register ensures items of global significance can be accessed by both current and future generations, while supporting research, education, and preservation efforts.
过去三十年来，教科文组织“世界记忆”计划通过促进国际合作，致力于实现这些目标。拥有近500个所列项目（包括2023年的64个）的《世界记忆国际名录》，在确保今世后代能够获取具有全球重要性的遗产项目的同时，也为研究、教育和保护工作提供支持。
On this day, therefore, UNESCO reaffirms its commitment to safeguarding documentary heritage as a catalyst for dialogue and peace. For preserving our heritage means preserving our memory – and we cannot build a sustainable future without remembering our past.
因此，值此世界音像遗产日，教科文组织重申其保护文献遗产作为对话与和平催化剂的承诺。因为，保护我们的遗产就意味着保护我们的记忆，而如果我们不能铭记过去，就无法建设可持续的未来。
