梅琳达2013在杜克大学(6)
Paul Farmer the Duke graduate I admire most I think most of you know him
保罗.法默是我最钦佩的一位杜克毕业生我想你们大多数人都听说过他
He's a doctor and a global health innovator He spends his time between Boston, Haiti, Rwanda He's now trying to fix or completely change the Rwandan health system
他是一名医生 一名全球健康革新者他把大部分时间都花在波士顿 海地 卢旺达他现在正尝试着彻底改革卢旺达的医疗体系
I first met Paul in 2003. I went to travel to his clinic in Cange, Haiti and what struck me about that visit was first of all it took us so long to get the 100 yards from the vehicle to his clinic
我2003年第一次遇见保罗 我拜访了他在海地小村康吉的诊所这次访问让我惊奇的 首先是从下车到他诊所的100码距离竟然走了那么久
And the reason for that was that Paul introduced me to every single person along the way Every single person
原因在于保罗向我介绍了路上碰到的每一个人每一个人
And he introduced them by first and last name he told me something about their family. He asked them about their lives And when we arrived at the clinic
他介绍了他们的全名告诉我他们的家庭情况 问他们生活过得如何等我们到达诊所
On the outside, there was this beautiful little trellis with morning glories growing on it When I asked Paul about it, he said, "Oh, I built that myself
我看到外面搭有长满牵牛花的漂亮棚架我问保罗 他说 "这是我自己建的"
I built it because I wanted the people here to see the beauty in the world that I see and I also wanted them to have a little bit of shade in the sun while they wait to go in the clinic"
我想让这里的人和我一样 看到世界的美丽"另外 这还能为他们排队就诊"提供阴凉之所
The very next day, I traveled to another clinic in Haiti It was in Port-au-Prince. It was set up for the same reasons as Paul to give great healthcare to the people of Haiti
第二天 我又拜访了海地另一家诊所这是在太子港 诊所的建立目的和保罗一样是为了给海地民众提供好的医疗
The doctors there went for all the right reasons I noticed something very different in that clinic The doctors thought of themselves as health care providers
那里的医生也都出于良好动机但我注意到 这个诊所就非常不同了医生们只把自己当作是医疗提供者
And they thought of the Haitians as recipients and consequently even though healthcare was good quality, healthcare was going on there
只把海地人当作是医疗接受者结果尽管同样有高质量的医疗
There was a lot of resentment in that clinic between both patients and doctors and experiencing those two clinics one-day right after the other taught me something
但诊所内病人和医生的不满之声却都不绝于耳两天之内连续访问这两家诊所的经历让我认识到
人物简介
本视频是比尔盖茨夫人、比尔及梅琳达·盖茨基金会联合创始人梅琳达·盖茨在杜克大学2013届毕业典礼上的演讲。她这次演讲的主题是联系。
她认为互联网的发展能够为全世界之间人的联系提供一个非常好的平台，能让人把与自己生活在不同环境中的人，理解为和自己本质上一样的人，建立起直接沟通的桥梁。比起抽象的概念，这种具体联系，能让人更愿意去帮助那些同自己一样，但生活条件更糟糕的人。这样一来人类才有可能真正实现马丁·路德·金所说的所有人情同手足的世界。于提问，不要怕难为情；要有勇于改变世界的勇气；要比任何人都更加努力，因为生命中没有任何东西能够替代努力。
