It will help serve as a clearing house to better match academic innovation with particular areas of work of the United Nations – neglected areas of research, countries in need of specific help, research that will help deliver concrete change on the ground, and the best ideas to achieve the Millennium Development Goals by 2015.

　　将学术创新与联合国工作的特定领域(却被研究忽视的领域)，与需要特殊援助的相关国家，与能产生具体变化的研究，与实现2015年千年发展目标的最好方式相结合，起到了“结算中心”的作用。

　　I am encouraged by the support demonstrated here. I have high hopes for what the initiative – and all of us – can do together in the future. Of course, the UN and the academic community already enjoy a strong partnership. Academic Impact will deepen it further for the twenty-first century.

　　在这里，大家的支持使我倍受鼓舞。我对这个项目，对所有人都寄予厚望，我们在未来可以携手合作，共同面对。当然，联合国与学术界已经建立了强有力的伙伴关系。“学术影响力”将在21世纪进一步加深这一关系。

　　欢迎各位提出你们的意见，使我们这项活动办的更好。

　　Ladies and Gentlemen,

　　女士们，先生们，

　　This week, the eminent Shanghai-born physicist, Dr. Charles Kao, celebrates his 77th birthday. We salute one of the fathers of applied science, recognized around the world for his achievements in the field of optical communication. Dr. Kao once said, “Optical communication is not just a technical advance, it will continue to change the way people learn, the way they live and relate to each other, as well as the way they work.” I believe Dr. Kao’s observation can be applied more broadly to all human knowledge, innovation and discovery. Scholarship – and a commitment to the academic freedom that underlies it – will continue to drive the ideas and energy that will change our world for good.

　　本周，上海籍著名物理学家高锟迎来了他77岁的寿辰。我们祝福他，这位应用科学之父、被全世界公认的光纤领域科学家。高教授曾经说：“光纤通讯并不仅仅只是科技上的成就，它可以改变人们学习的方式、生活的方式、交流的方式和工作的方式。我认为，高教授的成就可以被更广泛地应用于人类所有知识、创新与发现。而学术——和保障学术自由这一基础——将继续增强我们的力量，为我们提供方法，来永远地改变这个世界。

　　The United Nations stands ready to be an active partner with you in ensuring that your knowledge, skills and scholarship advance our universal goals of peace, development and human rights. Thank you for coming together in support of these noble goals.

　　联合国愿意积极与各位合作，确保你们的知识、技能、学识能够得到应用，推动实现维护和平、促进发展和保障****的共同目标。感谢各位前来，共同支持这些崇高目标的实现。

　　Together, we can help ensure that the impact of your academic work can have maximum impact on our world.

　　如果我们携手合作，你们的学术工作可以对全世界产生最大的影响。
