| "China has much to offer the world, it is whether the world is ready to hear her. I often use that saying 'don't throw the baby out with the bath water' as China embraces the west and its values." |
“中國有著許多可以向世界展示的東西，關(guān)鍵在于這個(gè)世界是否做好準(zhǔn)備聆聽她的聲音。我經(jīng)常提到這句諺語‘不要把小孩連同洗澡水一起倒掉’，中國在接受西方世界及其價(jià)值觀的時(shí)候，要摒棄糟粕留其精華。” |
| Robert Glover first came to China in 1996 on a research visit and saw quickly that rather than looking at problems it was the solutions to the problems that were the better approach. With twenty years experience as a UK social worker he saw how he might be able to use his professional training to support disadvantaged children, in particular orphaned and abandoned children. |
羅伯特?格洛夫1996年首次對華進(jìn)行研究訪問，他很快就認(rèn)識到，最好的辦法是提供解決問題的方法，而不是盯著問題本身。憑借擁有20年英國社會工作者的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，他清楚地知道怎樣利用自己專業(yè)培訓(xùn)知識來幫助貧困兒童，尤其是孤兒和被拋棄的兒童。 |
| In 1998 he founded "Care for Children" and moved to Shanghai with his wife, Elizabeth, and their six children, to work in partnership with the Shanghai Civil Affairs on a family placement project. Funded by the Department for International Development, 500-orphaned children were placed from the institution into local Shanghai families in the first model of best practice in China. |
1998年，羅伯特成立了“關(guān)愛兒童”慈善組織，并和他的妻子伊麗莎白及他們的六個(gè)孩子來到了上海，與上海民政局合作，開展“家庭安置計(jì)劃”。在英國國際發(fā)展部的資助下，在中國第一批最佳實(shí)踐模式中，500名孤兒被從福利機(jī)構(gòu)接走安置在了上海當(dāng)?shù)氐募彝ブ小?/td> |
| In 2001 Robert was awarded the White Magnolia award from the Shanghai Government, presented by the Vice Mayor of Shanghai Zhou Yupeng for outstanding services to the City of Shanghai. |
2001年，羅伯特獲得了上海市政府頒發(fā)的“白玉蘭獎”，上海市副市長周禹鵬親自向?yàn)樯虾Ｗ龀鼋艹鲐暙I(xiàn)的人授獎。 |
| Following an invitation form the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he and his family moved to Beijing in 2003 to work in partnership with a national project throughout China with projects now in 28 provinces and training nearly 300 social welfare institutes. A vision for "one million children" was born. |
在接受民政部的邀請后，羅伯特和他的家人于2003年搬到了北京。他與一項(xiàng)國家計(jì)劃合作開展全國范圍內(nèi)的多個(gè)項(xiàng)目，現(xiàn)在，已在28個(gè)省份開展，培訓(xùn)大約300家社會福利機(jī)構(gòu)。項(xiàng)目愿景是為了已出生的“100萬兒童”。 |
| "In helping to set up a professional family placement programme in China it is important that we work strategically. We want to develop a sustainable approach, which embraces senior government policy makers while training at grass root level. This then empowers the local staff to transform children's lives. We have been told that an estimated 250,000 children have now been placed into families." |
“在協(xié)助中國建立專業(yè)的家庭安置計(jì)劃中，很重要的一點(diǎn)是我們要進(jìn)行戰(zhàn)略性的工作。我們希望開發(fā)一個(gè)包括政府高官在內(nèi)的可持續(xù)方法，同時(shí)從草根層面起培訓(xùn)。這樣一來，就可以讓地方工作人員來改變兒童的生活。我們已被告知，現(xiàn)在估計(jì)有250,000名兒童被安置在各個(gè)家庭中。” |
| In 2005 Robert was awarded the OBE from Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace for his work for Care for Children. |
2005年，羅伯特在白金漢宮被伊麗莎白女王二世授予了大英帝國勛章，表彰他為“關(guān)愛兒童”組織所做的工作。 |
| Robert is a Christian and believes that the family is vital not only to the positive development of children lives but also to society as a whole. On most Saturday evenings in China, Robert tunes into Radio Norfolk to hear how Norwich City is fairing. |
羅伯特是一名基督徒，他相信家庭不僅對兒童生活的積極發(fā)展至關(guān)重要，而且對整個(gè)社會也至關(guān)重要。在中國，大部分周六的晚上，羅伯特都會調(diào)到諾福克電臺，收聽諾威奇市的情況是怎樣的。 |
| Background: Since China's opening up, increasing numbers of British people have made China their home. There are now many thousands of British people here.
