作为联合国儿童基金会青年教育使者，我亲身感受到教育对于培养快乐、自信和坚韧的孩子有多重要。去年，我访问了两所在（广西）三江县的爱生学校，在那里，我看到学习成为了一种快乐的体验，学生们不仅可以一起探索解决问题的方案，还能够掌握未来所需要的重要生活技能。

However, not all children can access this type of education, and it saddens me that there is still this massive inequality in the world today. That is why I am committed to my role as UNICEF Special Advocate for Education and plan to work with them this year to call attention to the importance of the universal quality education for every child.

然而并非所有儿童都能够享有这样的教育，我很忧虑地看到世界上仍然存在巨大的教育资源的分配不均。基于这样的认识，我作为联合国儿童基金会青年教育使者，决心今年和联合国儿童基金会一道，倡导呼吁更多的人关注普及优质教育的重要性，让每一名儿童都能从中受益。

This year, I am going to support UNICEF to bring the SDG to life for children and young people in China through the creative use of multimedia. This will empower young people to better understand what the SDGs are, and why they are important for their future and for the future of the world.

今年，我还打算支持联合国儿童基金会利用多媒体的创意传播手段，让中国的儿童和青少年关注到可持续发展目标的实际意义，让广大的年轻人更好地了解可持续发展目标，并充分认识到实现这些目标对孩子的未来乃至全世界的未来的重要意义。

As a young artist and a student, I am lucky to have a large following on Chinese social media, in fact I have over 35 million followers. I see it as my duty to use this following for good. I will participate in discussions on topics such as #youth2030 and #childfriendlyschools on social media channels. I hope that my posts can reach millions of people to draw attention and inspire progress towards universal access to quality education and the achievement of the SDGs.”

作为一名年轻艺人和学生，我很幸运能够在中国的社交媒体平台上得到超过3500万网友的关注，这也成为了我的一份责任，我要通过我自身的影响力服务于儿童和青年公益事业，参与到#我们的2030#和#爱生学校#等话题讨论中，我希望我的发帖能引发社会大众对教育事业、可持续发展的思考和关注。

What I learned from Yale is how to find out problems and how to use scientific method to solve problems. Rural China interests me. There are many parents, just like my parents, hoping to offer their children better lives and education. I want to help.

我在耶鲁学到的是如何发现问题以及如何用科学的方法来解决问题。我对中国农村很感兴趣，这些地方有许多像我父母一样的家长希望能够为他们的孩子提供更好的生活和教育，我想帮他们。

In 2014, I founded this NGO organization called Serve For China with my friends from Yale University. This NGO offers Serve For China fellowship. Every year, we recruit a group of very talented Chinese university graduates and send them to serve as poverty alleviation officers in poverty-stricken counties and villages of China. 

2014年，我和我耶鲁大学的朋友们，一起成立了黑土麦田公益，它是一个非政府组织。该组织可提供专项奖金，并且每年都会招募优秀的中国大学毕业生，支持他们去往中国的贫困乡村，开展扶贫工作。

You see, the part of China I grew up in was a rural village, and at that time pre-industrial. When I was born, my village had no cars, no telephones, no electricity, not even running water. And we certainly didn’t have access to modern medical resources. There was no doctor my mother could bring me to see about my spider bite.

你看，我长大的地方在中国农村，那时，我的家乡还是一个落后的小村庄。我出生时，村子里还没有汽车、电话、电，甚至连自来水都没有。我们显然也接触不到现代医疗资源。我妈根本找不到医生来给我处理蜘蛛咬伤。

Lifesaving knowledge we take for granted in the modern world is often unavailable in these underdeveloped regions. And in far too many places, people are still essentially trying to cure a spider bite with fire.

我们在现代社会里觉得理所当然的那些救生常识，在这些欠发达地区往往尚未普及。世界上仍有很多地区，人们还在用火来治疗蜘蛛咬伤。

While studying at Harvard, I saw how scientific knowledge can help others in simple, yet profound ways. The bird flu pandemic in the 2000s looked to my village like a spell cast by demons. Our folk medicine didn’t even have half-measures to offer. What’s more, farmers didn’t know the difference between common cold and flu; they didn’t understand that the flu was much more lethal than the common cold. Most people were also unaware that the virus could transmit across different species.

在哈佛读书期间，我切身体会到科学知识如何用简单，却深远的方式帮助人们。本世纪初，禽流感肆虐，在我的家乡人看来，这就如恶魔施咒一样。民间偏方对此束手无策。而且，农民也分不清普通感冒和流感，他们不知道流感比普通感冒致命得多。大多数人也没有意识到流感可以在不同物种之间传播。

More than ever before, our society emphasizes science and innovation. But an equally important emphasis should be on distributing the knowledge we have to where it’s needed. 

我们的社会比以往任何年代都更强调科学和创新。但同样需要被强调的一个重点是，把知识传授到那些真正需要的地方。

Changing the world doesn’t mean that everyone has to find the next big thing. It can be as simple as becoming better communicators, and finding more creative ways to pass on the knowledge we have to people like my mom and the farmers in their local community. Our society also needs to recognize that the equal distribution of knowledge is a pivotal step of human development, and work to bring this into reality.

改变世界并不意味着每个人都要做出一个大突破。改变世界可以简单如做一个沟通者，寻找更多创造性的方法将知识传递给像我妈妈和村里的农民这样的群体。我们的社会也需要认识到知识资源的平均分配，是人类社会发展的一个关键环节，需共同努力将其实现。
