en-us	I was afraid of what might happen to my family, friends, students, and many others. 
zh-cn	我的家人、朋友、学生和许多其他人的安危令我牵挂。

en-us	Coming from Sarajevo, this crisis also triggered memories of the 1990s war in the Balkans–I remembered what it means to live in a time of collective disaster, when everyone you know is affected by a collapse of the social, political and economic system–
zh-cn	作为一个萨拉热窝人，这场危机也唤醒了我对1990年代巴尔干战争的记忆：当时，我认识的所有人都受到社会、政治和经济体系崩溃的影响。我知道生活在集体灾难时期意味着什么。

en-us	and I was terrified about the potential effect of the pandemic on the entire world. 
zh-cn	因此，我曾对这一流行病可能对整个世界产生的影响感到恐惧。 

en-us	But these memories of war in Bosnia also made me realize that what matters most, at the time of an existential crisis, are qualities of our human connections. Things like solidarity, empathy, and kindness. 
zh-cn	但是，关于波斯尼亚战争的记忆也让我意识到，在威胁人类生存的危机时期，人际关系的品质至关重要，比如团结、同情和善良。

en-us	It is so inspiring to see all these new forms of generosity emerging all over the world–from young people doing grocery shopping for the elderly as a way of protecting them, to people getting crafty and producing PPE* for first responders, to fundraising campaigns for people who lost their jobs –
zh-cn	世界各地涌现的善举令人振奋——从年轻人替老年人购买杂货以保护他们免受感染，到人们千方百计为应急响应人员生产个人防护用品，再到为失业者举办筹款运动——

en-us	we can see that, aside from hoarding food and disinfectants, or profiteering from masks and ventilators, existential crises like COVID-19 also bring out the best in humanity. 
zh-cn	我们可以看出，除了囤积食物和消毒剂或从口罩和呼吸机中牟取暴利，像新冠疫情这样的生存危机彰显了人性中最美好的一面。

en-us	As much as we are going through a difficult time right now, I believe that this time can be about personal and collective growth, that we see this crisis as an opportunity to create a better world. 
zh-cn	尽管我们正在经历一段艰难的时期，但我相信个人和集体都将在这场危机中有所成长，相信我们可以把这场危机看作是创造一个更美好世界的机会。 

en-us	The Co-MASK is a global collaborative effort that I initiated to create fabric masks that promote hope, humanity, and hygiene practices in time of crisis. 
zh-cn	“联合口罩”是我发起的一个全球合作项目，旨在生产织物口罩，以在这一危机时期传播希望、人道主义和卫生措施。

en-us	The project offers instructions in many languages on how to make masks in individual sizes at home, and without a sewing machine. 
zh-cn	该项目以多种语言提供指导，让人们无需缝纫机即可在家中自制口罩。

en-us	We hope to inspire people around the world to create these masks for their families, friends, and their communities to advocate self-isolation, hygiene practices, and heartfelt human connection.

en-us	With their kissing lips and smiling moustaches, these masks are a symbol of hope and love. 
zh-cn	这些口罩上印着亲吻的嘴唇和微笑的胡子等图案，它们是希望与爱的象征。 

en-us	The Co-MASK initiative was born at the beginning of the COVID-19 outbreak, when there was no public awareness about the virus and public authorities had just begun to advocate for “social distancing.” 
zh-cn	“联合口罩”倡议诞生于新冠疫情爆发之初，当时公众对该病毒缺乏认识，而各国政府刚刚开始倡导“保持社交距离”。

en-us	Many were just ignoring these safety recommendations. 
zh-cn	许多人直接忽略了这些安全建议。

en-us	Many started reacting in fear, avoiding even the eye contact with passers-by. 
zh-cn	还有许多人开始恐慌，甚至不敢与路人眼神接触。

en-us	Acts of racism against Asian people increased. 
zh-cn	针对亚洲人的种族主义行为增多。

en-us	Rather than serving collective protection, the notion of social distancing was turning into “social alienation.” 
zh-cn	“保持社交距离”的概念被扭曲成了“社会异化”，而不是为了保护集体的健康做出贡献。 

en-us	After many sleepless nights, I woke up one morning with the question in mind: How can I be useful in this time?  Having a sewing machine at home, I got up and made the first two kissing and smiling mask prototypes. 
zh-cn	在经历了许多个不眠之夜后，一天早晨，我醒来时想到了这样一个问题：危机时期，我能发挥什么作用？我家里有一台缝纫机，于是我动手制作了两个亲吻和微笑口罩的原型。

en-us	I developed simple instructions for hand-sewing and wrote an email to our community at the School of Architecture and Planning at MIT*, inviting colleagues, students, and alumni to join me in developing this project. 
zh-cn	我编写了简单的手工缝纫指南，并向麻省理工学院（MIT）建筑与规划学院的同仁发送了一封电子邮件，邀请同事、学生和校友与我一起开发这个项目。

en-us	I was completely overwhelmed by the outbursts of support.

zh-cn	许多人开始将口罩制作指南翻译成自己的母语，向家人和朋友寻求帮助，鼓励他人制作口罩，提高人们的认识。

en-us	The collaborations took off beyond MIT, virally so to say, all around the world.  
zh-cn	这一合作项目在麻省理工学院之外迅速发展起来，可以说，它已经扩散到了世界各地。  

en-us	"I'm supporting this initiative as I believe it's our duty as practitioners to spread awareness and identify affordable solutions for those who don't enjoy the luxury of accessing accurate information and resources. 
zh-cn	“我支持这一倡议，因为我相信作为从业者，我们有责任提高那些无法获取准确信息和资源的人的认识，并找到低成本的解决方案。

en-us	Nevertheless, we shall constantly reflect the positive humane spirit in our work. 
zh-cn	尽管如此，我们还是要不断地在工作中体现出积极的人文精神。

en-us	Do it with love, solidarity and hope that this would support someone, somewhere to get a bit safer." 
zh-cn	我们带着爱与团结从事这项工作，希望我们的项目能让有些地方的有些人得到更多保护。”

en-us	UNESCO's work focuses a lot on the most vulnerable groups affected by this crisis.

zh-cn	“联合口罩”倡议现在由一群分散在世界各地的个人运行，他们彼此并不认识，却能够开展跨国合作，以解决共同的关切。

en-us	This is why the sewing instructions are translated into 25 languages.

zh-cn	我们的许多翻译人员也根据当地情况调整了制作指南的内容，以解决文化方面的问题或某些材料的短缺问题。

zh-cn	我们正在继续推进这一全球努力：我们的志愿者正在开发一个开源的图像工具包，供在难民营、贫困社区和各种危机地区工作的非政府组织能够在其宣传和提高认识工作中免费使用。 

en-us	Most importantly, the mask is personalized in terms of both of dimensions and design. 
zh-cn	最重要的是，口罩的尺寸和设计都是个性化的。

en-us	The sewing pattern is legible to analphabets. It is based on the mask carrier’s hand dimensions, thus transcending metric and imperial measuring systems, making each mask unique for each person. 
zh-cn	缝纫方法通俗易懂，以口罩佩戴者的手的大小为基础，既避免了不同度量系统之间差异的影响，也使每个口罩都具有个人特色。

en-us	These person-specific masks give visual form to pluralism. 
zh-cn	这些个人定制的口罩是多元主义的视觉表达。

en-us	In a world traversed by zones of contact in which lifestyle choices have become targets for reactionary forms of identity paranoia, wearing a mask can be perceived as a threat. 
zh-cn	当今世界，身份偏执导致公共场合经常发生针对不同生活方式选择的排斥行为。在这一背景下，戴口罩在某些地方会被视为一种威胁。

zh-cn	你也是联合国教科文组织沙迦阿拉伯文化奖评委会成员。你认为在这样的时期，教科文组织能够发挥什么作用？新冠疫情之后呢？ 

en-us	The COVID-19 pandemic is projected to have severe effects on the global economy and the associated social inequalities. 
zh-cn	预计新冠疫情将对全球经济和相关的社会不平等产生严重影响。

en-us	The severity of these effects gives us just a glimpse into the possible future of life under climate change: it is an alarming call to action, to shift our usual ways of being and working, to act as one united planet. 
zh-cn	从这些影响中我们窥见了气候变化下的未来生活的样子：我们必须改变我们习以为常的生存和工作方式，作为一个统一的星球采取行动。

zh-cn	我相信文化是建设更有韧性的社区的重要而有力的工具。

en-us	Thinking of the rapidly growing numbers of displaced people, I think that we need to rethink some of the parameters on which our crisis responses are built, which mainly focus on supporting the basic biological needs of refugees. 
zh-cn	考虑到流离失所者人数的迅速增加，我认为我们需要重新思考我们应对危机所依据的一些参数，这些参数主要侧重于满足难民的基本生存需求。

en-us	I believe that it is imperative to develop tools for the cultural resilience to enable affected communities to overcome adversity and the danger of cultural erasure, social divisions, and marginalization of population on the move to safe grounds. 
zh-cn	我认为，必须开发增强文化韧性的工具，使受影响社区能够克服逆境和文化割裂、社会分裂以及移居安全地点的人口边缘化的危险。

zh-cn	在这方面，联教科文组织可以凭借其已经建立的全球网络发挥重要作用。  

en-us	"Collectiveness and thread of continuity are reflexive social defence mechanisms in times of crisis. 
zh-cn	“集体精神和连续性是危机时期反应性的社会防御机制。

en-us	While acknowledging the need for physical distancing, the Co-MASK project recognizes collectiveness through creative social cohesion, which combines responsibility, borderless solidarity, and interpersonal affiliation. 
zh-cn	‘联合口罩’项目既承认保持空间上的距离的必要性，也通过创造性的社会凝聚彰显集体精神的价值，这种凝聚结合了责任、无国界的团结和人与人之间的友好。

en-us	At the same time, it celebrates individualism through anthropometrics and craft – one's hand is a measure for one's mask; one's stitch is a handstamp of one's identity – and thus promotes the power of unity in diversities and relevance of each human being for both collectiveness and thread of continuity." 
zh-cn	同时，它通过人体测量和手工艺礼赞个人主义——每个人都用自己的手丈量自己口罩的尺寸，用自己的针脚留下自己身份的印记——从而促进多样性基础上的团结，以及个体对集体精神和连续性的认同。” 

en-us	– Dr Amra Hadžimuhamedović, supported translation in Bosnian; Director of Center for Cultural Heritage, International Forum Bosnia, worked with UNESCO for the project "Harnessing reconciliation through the recovery of cultural heritage" and the UNESCO-World Bank project Culture in City Reconstruction and Recovery (CURE)

zh-cn	“联合口罩”倡议诞生于一次视角的转变：抛开恐惧，聚焦创造性的善举。

en-us	Looking at the many DIY* masks that were created and gifted as a result from this initiative, but also the many similar initiatives created by others all over the world, all these efforts are collectively contributing to reaching a shared goal: to protect and unite our global community. 
zh-cn	看看人们在这一倡议之下制作的自制口罩，以及世界各地其他人发起的许多类似倡议——所有这些努力都在促进一个共同目标的实现：保护和团结我们的全球社区。 

en-us	While masks ultimately erase our humanity, by erasing our facial expressions and individuality, the Co-Masks re-inscribe that what has been erased with a message of hope and humour.  
zh-cn	虽然口罩遮挡了我们的面部表情和个性，从而抹去了我们的人性，但是自制口罩用希望和幽默重新唤醒了这些被遮挡和抹去的东西。

en-us	They show how alienation could be turned into empowerment. 
zh-cn	它们展示了如何将异化转变为赋能。

en-us	For me personally, the Co-MASK is not just a DIY solution, but also an art project. 
zh-cn	对我来说，“联合面具”不仅仅是一个“自制”（DIY）解决方案，也是一个艺术项目。

en-us	It provides means to expose the inequality of the world we live in and amplify the voices of those who have been silenced. 
zh-cn	它提供了揭露我们所生活的世界的不平等的手段，并放大了那些被压制的声音。

en-us	To create art in today’s alienated world means inspiring empathy in future generations that can make them less indifferent to the social costs of maintaining their lifestyles and more open to the voices of others, not as a negotiating technique, but as an indispensable, irreducible, and precarious part of the human chorus. 
zh-cn	在当今被异化的世界中创造艺术，意味着激发后代的同情心，使他们不再对维持自己生活方式的社会成本漠不关心，而是更加开放地接受他人的声音。这不是一种权宜之计，而是人类大合唱中不可或缺的、不可削减的、变化多端的一部分。

en-us	To create projects like the Co-MASK in today’s alienated world means instigating confident idealism in pursuit of a better future.
zh-cn	在当今被异化的世界中发起“联合口罩”这样的项目，意味着激发追求更美好未来的自信的理想主义。
