In a globalizing world, access to information is vital to build more inclusive, sustainable knowledge societies. This is the message of the International Day for Universal Access to Information (IDUAI), focusing on the key role that access to information plays in taking forward the2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
在一個全球化的世界，獲取信息對於建設更加包容和可持續的知識社會至關重要。這就是普遍獲取信息國際日所要傳遞的訊息，今年國際日的重點是獲取信息對於推進《2030年可持續發展議程》的關鍵作用。
Access to information is a fundamental right. It allows women and men to understand and participate in creating and sharing the knowledge they need to contribute fully to society. It is a condition of informed citizenship, helping to hold governments accountable. It is a driver of innovation and creativity, widening opportunities for all, especially for girls and women.
獲取信息是一項基本權利。它使得人們能夠理解並參與創造和分享為社會作出充分貢獻所需的知識。它是培養知情公民的一個條件，有助於問責政府。它是創新和創造力的一個驅動因素，為所有人，尤其是女童和婦女，拓展了機會。
Being informed starts with the commitment of Governments to develop, promulgate and enforce policies and laws on the Right to Information to guarantee the respect of this human right. This requires efficient implementation mechanisms and a culture of transparency across all types of institutions. Citizens need also to have the critical thinking, literacy and digital skills required to access, analyse and use the information in different ways, offline and online. This is why UNESCO calls on all governments and partners to leverage the power of Information and Communication Technologies to help achieveSustainable Education Goal 4for ensuring 「inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.」 Access to Information is also about promoting development of content that will be relevant, local and multilingual. All of this calls for proactive polices and strong partnerships at all levels.
知情始於政府的承諾，即制定、頒布和執行關於獲取信息權的政策和法律以保障尊重這項人權。這需要有效的實施機制以及各類機構中的透明文化。公民也需要具備以各種方式在線下和線上獲取、分析和使用信息所需的批判性思維、素養和數字技能。因此，教科文組織呼籲各國政府和合作夥伴利用信息和通信技術的力量來幫助實現可持續教育目標4，以確保「包容和公平的優質教育，讓全民終身享有學習機會」。獲取信息也需要推動具有相關性和地方性的多語言內容的開發。所有這一切都需要積極主動的政策以及各個級彆強有力的夥伴關係。
The International Day for Universal Access to Information is also an opportunity to renew our commitment to freedom of expression and the safety of journalists. The media play a crucial role in facilitating access to information to citizens and in monitoring important social issues while enlightening their audiences with insight and knowledge. There cannot be universal access to information without free and independent media.
普遍獲取信息國際日也是一個重申我們對表達自由和記者安全的承諾的機會。媒體在促進公民獲取信息以及在監督重要的社會問題並以見解和知識啟迪受眾方面發揮著重要作用。沒有自由和獨立的媒體，就不可能實現信息的普遍獲取。
Access to information is not only a goal in itself; it is also a key contributor to the realization of all otherSustainable Development Goals. It is therefore crucial that we continue our efforts to ensure that every woman and man enjoys full access to information.
獲取信息不僅本身就是一項目標，而且還是實現其他各項可持續發展目標的一個關鍵因素。因此，我們必須再接再厲，確保每一個人享有充分獲取信息的機會。
