我 陈璐 我一直在思考我能为世界带来什么。 或许我什么也做不了，是这个世界一直源源不断地支援着我。 我不喜欢谈及理想、梦想和志向这一类东西，过于虚无，而我过于渺小。我喜欢默默做 事，然后等别人来主动发现我。但，这份实习似乎改变了我。 我不再陷于对自身无意义的失落，也不再做一个静待别人发现的麦苗。 在这份实习里，我遇到了各种各样的人。他们国籍不一、肤色不一，却都拥有着同样热 忱而善良的心。我还记得我第一次尝试设计出版物的封面和尾页的时候，小组里的小伙伴主 动教我怎么做，让我不要害怕和紧张；我也记得当我将设计好的封面发到群里的时候，来自 世界各地的小伙伴对我的设计所表示的肯定和赞叹。当我一次又一次接受挑战的时候，挑战 也在我的驾轻就熟中变得轻松、简单，所以后来我会主动提出想负责，主动承担一些任务。 尽管我仍然羞涩胆怯，但我在改变。在一次又一次的大胆中，我也找寻到了自己的意义所在。 像特蕾莎修女说的那样：“不是所有人都能做伟大的事情，但我们可以用伟大的爱去做一点 小事。”每个人的文章组合到一起，就是一本出版物；不同的主题，不同的出版物汇聚在一 起，就是一整个世界的缩影，我们的眼中对于世界的反映。 我是英语专业的学生，因而这份实习对我而言，也是未来职业道路的一种尝试和试错。 我希望能站到更大的舞台上去表达自己的想法，即使胆怯。在这份实习里，我们与不同的小 伙伴交流与合作，朝着同一个方向共同努力和进步。这是非常好的一件事情。我喜欢自然， 我喜欢动物，我喜欢一群人为着同一个很高很高的目标而努力奋斗的感觉。我以后大概率会 在一些非营利性组织里面任职，因而这份实习给予了我宝贵的经验和初步的体验。当然，以 后的路还长，我尚未知道我将走向何方，但我已在路上。 希望明天，我和世界都会更好。

I Chen Lu I've been thinking about what I can bring to the world.

Maybe I can do nothing. I am always getting more from the world, compared to what I can do for her.

I don't like to talk about ideals, dreams and aspirations, for that this kind of things are too nothingness and vague, and I am too small. I like to do things quietly and wait for others to discover me. But this leadership journey changed me.

I am no longer lost in a meaningless sense of myself, or a wheat sprout waiting to be discovered.

In this internship, I met all kinds of people. They were of different nationalities and complexions, but they all shared the same warm and kind hearts. I still remember the first time I tried to design the cover and back pages of a publication. One of my teammates took the initiative to teach me how to do it and let me not be afraid and nervous. I also remember that when I posted my designed cover to the group, friends from all over the world expressed their affirmation and admiration for my design. When I accepted the challenge again and again, the challenge also became easy and simple, so I would take the initiative to be responsible and take on some tasks.I'm still shy and timid, but I'm changing. In daring again and again, I also find my own meaning. As Mother Teresa said, "Not all of us can do great things, but we can do small things with great love." The combination of each person's articles makes a publication; Different topics, different publications together, is a microcosm of the whole world, the reflection of the world in our eyes.

I am an English major, so this internship is also a kind of try for my future career path. I hope I can stand on a bigger stage to express my ideas, even if I am shy and afraid. During this internship, we communicated and cooperated with different partners and made joint efforts and progress in the same direction. This is a very good thing. I like nature and animals, and I like the feeling of a group of people working hard for the same high goal. I will probably work in some non-profit organizations in the future, so this internship gives me valuable and preliminary experience. Of course, there's a long way to go, and I don't know where I'm going yet, but I'm on my way.

Hopefully tomorrow, the world and I will be better and better.

服务社群 提升自我 ——我在 AFI 的经历与收获 陈崇宇 不知不觉间，在 AFI(Ariel Foundation International)的旅程就只剩下最后一个月了。这几 个月以来，我从在会议中懵懵懂懂、鲜少发言的新手小白，逐渐变成了主动参与集体讨论、 组织召开会议、积极与团队伙伴们沟通的积极的领导者角色。这段旅程中，我变化颇多也收 获颇多，我相信这也注定会是我人生中一段非常特别的经历。 今年一月份，我收到了来自 AFI 的实习 offer，这让我十分振奋。在申请之前，我就了 解到 AFI 致力于通过广泛的国际合作与积极倡导来提升儿童青少年全球领导力的愿景，这 也与我个人的价值观和专业背景十分契合，也因此，我也将这次的实习工作或者领导力发展 旅程看作是一次宝贵的机会和荣誉。 记得在参与 AFI 的欢迎会时，我拥有了与来自全世界各地的年轻领导者见面问候的机 会，我们拥有不同的性别或种族，来自不同的国家和文化背景，却因为对青少年事务与国际 发展事业的关心与热爱，一起在这里相聚，为彼此送上祝福与问候，并共同承担属于我们的 领导者使命，为创造更平等、更美好的世界而努力。是 AFI 让我们相聚在一起，就如同一 句中国古诗所言——“相知无远近，万里尚为邻”。 在见面会后，我们陆续投入进了 AFI 的工作当中，我个人也在三月份正式作为一名骄 傲的中国领导者加入了这个大家庭。我正式参与的第一项活动是联合国附属机构组织举办的 2022 年国际社工日的线上研讨会，作为一名社工专业学生，我十分有幸能够听到来自世界 不同地区的一线社会工作者们的服务经验与精彩故事。之后，我加入了 Social Media 小组并 扮演组长角色，与中国的伙伴们共同创立了 Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Bilibili 等平台的社 交媒体账号，将我们中国领导者团队精心创作的介绍有关中国文化、中国青年和世界发展的 文章与视频上传到互联网，传递来自中国青年的声音。 此外，我非常感谢 Dr.King 对我的鼓励和帮助，她博学多才、热情乐观、为人谦逊、包 容友善，永远充满着积极的能量，对我在这段时间遇到的问题都耐心地给出了回答，在会议 中也不断鼓励我们积极参与而非因害怕犯错就放弃机会。Dr.King 将我们这些年轻人当作充 满力量和可能性的领导者而非仅仅是实习生，她永远给我们包容和鼓励，让我们在 AFI 的 旅程中可以做我们想做的事情，让我们得以以中国年轻人的身份发挥我们的聪明才智来创造 更好的世界，让改变成真。就这些来说，Dr.King 身上真的有许多值得我们年轻人尊重与学 习的闪光点。谢谢您，Dr.King！ 作为一名社会工作专业的本科生和一名打算出国深造并希望能够投入社会服务事业，为 解决社会问题、增进社区和社会福祉而努力的年轻人来说，能够用自己努力贡献出积极的力 量，通过合作与伙伴们共同成长，这是我所追求的重要目标，也是我在 AFI 的旅程中收获 的宝贵财富。为弱势者赋权、为改变世界而努力、为创造更美好的未来而奋斗，这是我作为 一名社工学生和一位世界公民的职业规划、人生愿景和奋斗目标。感谢 AFI 让我有机会能 够在广阔的国际舞台上跨出第一步，我会将在 AFI 收获到的服务经验带进未来的学习与服 务生涯中，继续实现能更多地可能性。

Serving the Community and Improving Myself --My Experience and Gains at Ariel Foundation International Chongyu Chen Before I know it, there is only one month left in my leadership journey at Ariel Foundation International (AFI). Over the past few months, I have gone from being a novice who rarely spoke up in meetings to an active leader who participates in group discussions, organizes meetings, and actively communicates with my teammates. I believe that this journey is destined to be a very special experience in my life.

In January of this year, I received an internship offer from AFI, which was very exciting. Before I applied, I understood that AFI's vision to promote global leadership for children and youth through extensive international collaboration and positive advocacy was a perfect fit with my personal values and academic background, and therefore I valued this internship or leadership development journey as a valuable opportunity and honor.

I remember when I participated in the AFI welcome meeting, I had the opportunity to meet and greet young leaders from all over the world, of different genders or ethnicities, from different countries and cultures, but because of our shared interest and love for youth affairs and international development, we came together here to send our blessings and greetings to each other and to share our mission as leaders to create a more equal and better world. It is AFI that brings us together, just as an old Chinese poem says - "Though bosom friends miles apart, no distance if sharing a heart."

After the meeting, we got involved in the work of AFI one after another, and I personally joined the family as a proud Chinese leader in March. The first event I officially participated in was an online seminar on the International Day of Social Work 2022 organized by a UN affiliate. As a social work student, I was very fortunate to hear the experiences and stories of frontline social workers from different parts of the world. Afterwards, I joined the Social Media team and played the role of team leader, creating social media accounts on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Bilibili and other platforms with my Chinese partners, uploading articles and videos created by our team of Chinese leaders about Chinese culture, Chinese youth and world development to The video and articles about Chinese culture, Chinese youth and world development created by our China Leaders team will be uploaded to the Internet to convey the voices of Chinese youth.

In addition, I am very grateful for the encouragement and help I received from Dr. King, who is knowledgeable, enthusiastic, humble, accommodating, friendly, and always full of positive energy, who patiently answered all the questions I had during my leadership journey, and who constantly encouraged us during the meetings to actively participate instead of passing up opportunities for fear of making mistakes. She is always inclusive and encouraging, allowing us to do what we want to do in our journey at AFI, and allowing us to bring our talents to bear as young Chinese to create a better world and make change happen. For all that, Dr. King really has many shining points in her that we young people should respect and learn from. Thank you, Dr. King!

As a social work undergraduate student and a young person who intends to study abroad and wants to be able to engage in a social service career and work towards solving social problems and enhancing the well-being of communities and society, being able to contribute positively with my own efforts and grow together with my partners through collaboration is an important goal I am pursuing and a valuable asset I have gained from my journey at AFI. Empowering the disadvantaged, working to change the world, and striving to create a better future are my career plans, life vision, and ambitions as a social work student and a global citizen. I am grateful to AFI for giving me the opportunity to take my first step on a broad international stage. I will take the service experience I gained at AFI into my future study and service career and continue to realize more possibilities.

青年参与全球治理 褚婕 参与国际组织的工作是青年人参与全球治理的体现。青年人，特别是中国及其他发展中 国家的青年人投身于全球治理能够提升发展中国家在国际事务中的代表性和发言权，为全球 治理体系的改革和建设贡献自己的智慧和力量。国际事务的处理需要各国人民集思广益，共 同协作。其终极目的是提高世界人民的福祉，维护国际社会的和平稳定，促进全球美好发展。 对于全球正面临的各项问题以及未来可能存在的各类挑战，我们应当共同携手、同舟共济， 践行多边主义，为构建人类命运共同体献出一份力。 在我看来，参与全球治理是大学生丰富自己，学习只有在实际工作经验中才能学到的东 西的一种方式。随着全球化的不断加速发展，大学生仅仅对专业知识有所掌握已然不足以应 对全球化的进程。全球视角对我们来说尤为重要。为了迎接从学校到社会的过渡转变，大学 生们应当参与各种各样的实习和社会活动，提高对政治、经济、教育等方面的敏感度。进入 国际组织开展实习便是一个极佳的选项。 自今年一月份起，我开始了在艾瑞尔国际基金会 Ariel Foundation International 的工作。 AFI 通过教育促进伙伴关系，通过创业促进和平与繁荣，通过服务促进经验，通过领导来支 持世界各地的儿童、青年和他们的社区。相信年轻人的领导能力和创业精神，支持青年儿童 发展，崇尚和平协作。这些都与我本人的价值取向不谋而合。 在 AFI 的工作期间我接触到了许多国际资源。参加联合国会议，会后撰写出版物，与 来自其他国家的年轻领导者分享我的想法并接收到他人的观点。这一切对于渴望拥有更大的 信息交流平台的我而言，是我无比重要的。 我具体参与的两份出版物是 AFI Changemakers at the UN for Holocaust Remembrance 以 及 AFI Changemakers at the United Nation’s Expert Mechanism on the Right to Development（联 合国关于发展权的专家机制） 在前者中，我所撰写的文章名为教育中的性别不平等——关注女童教育。这篇文章基于 了我本人的亲身经历。当我在某地展开乡村支教时，发现当地人们对于男孩女孩所应扮演的 社会角色已经完全划定，在这种情况下便不会给予他们充分的选择权。 女童失学不外乎由于贫困、文化、社会、思想观念等方面的因素。而这些因素往往与一 个国家的发展息息相关。世界银行曾经表示对一个国家而言，最好的投资就是女孩的教育。 它能够积极地影响 17 个可持续发展目标中的 9 个目标。健康、营养、就业等等各方面的问 题都能在女孩们得到教育后获得积极的影响。因此，女童失学问题，教育的性别平等问题不 可谓不是我们所需要关注的重中之重。这是我一直以来想要探讨的话题，很高兴 AFI 给予 了我这样一个平台和机会能与他人分享你我的观点。 而在联合国关于发展权的专家机制这一出版物中，我探讨了发展权能赋予人民什么这一 话题。在参会并进行了相关文献研读后，我意识到失去了发展权的国家的发展是有上限的， 我认为对于人来说同是如此。国家的发展始终要坚持以人民为中心，将人民福祉的实现置于 重中之重的地位，以加强国际合作来应对世界范围内的危机。 除了出版物的撰写之外，我们全体 AFI 中国领导者成立了一个中文俱乐部，每周以不

7

同的主题表达中国青年人的精神面貌。在这过程中，我们的主管 Dr.King 给予了我们充分的 发挥空间，任由我们自由制定每周主题，以视频、文章等形式在社交媒体上进行发布。 作为视频组的负责人，在这几次的内容制作中产出颇多也收获颇丰。这其中我和组员们 尝试了诸多形式的呈现。从一开始的单一采访形式到后期讲解内容的加入；从长视频的发布 到向短视频的转型，我们尝试了许多也推翻了许多。直至今日，仍在尝试以不同的形式探寻 更为吸引观众的呈现方式。 第一次的俱乐部主题与年轻人的喜好相关，我邀请了七八位不同地区不同爱好的同龄人 来谈一谈他们的想法。一开始，无论是剪辑或是表达都有些淳朴，是我们摸索着前进的起步。 后来，当谈及音乐相关话题时，我对采访对象的选择更看重了贴合度，向相关的从业人员发 出邀请，使得本次采访的专业知识性有所提高。由此一来，我们的俱乐部就从单纯的分享， 向专业知识的普及开始了转变。 我本人是就读于上海师范大学的一名英语专业学生。作为全球使用最为广泛的语言，英 语的学习不仅仅是对一门语言的钻研。其中更包含了对英语国家概况，乃至对世界格局的研 究。参与国际组织的工作是很好的实践机会，有助于提升对全球治理及全球文化的认识。 对于他国文化的尊重是参与全球治理的基础，而尊重本国文化也是一个不容忽视的议题。 在 AFI 第一次全体会议中，我的主管 Dr.King 反复要求大家以自己的名字而非起一个英文名 来称呼自己。她谈到起一个外文名字是对他国文化的尊重，但在国际组织中，我们应当尊重 来自世界各地不同的文化，更要让别人学会尊重自己的文化。因此，使用自己的本名，而非 起一个外文名字是十分重要的。这一点令我大为触动。 我本人对于未来的规划相对是较为明确的。在结束本科学习之后，我希望前往英语国家 开展对于国际关系、全球事务等方面进一步的研究学习。之后我渴望利用专业知识以及实践 经验，在国际组织开展工作，投身于全球治理。

The Participation of the Youth in Global Governance Chu Jie Attending the work of international organizations is the embodiment of young people's participation in global governance. Young people, especially those from China and other developing countries, who are committed to global governance will enhance the representation and voice of developing countries in international affairs and contribute their wisdom and strength to the reform and construction of the global governance system. Dealing with international affairs requires people of all countries to pool their wisdom and work together. The ultimate purpose is to improve the well-being of people around the world, maintain peace and stability of the international community, and promote better global development. We need to work together to address the challenges the world is facing and those may face in the future, practice multilateralism and contribute to the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.

As far as I am concerned, participating in global governance is a way for college students to enrich ourselves and learn things that can only be learned through practical work experience. With the accelerating development of globalization, it is no longer enough for college students to master professional knowledge to cope with the process of globalization. The global perspective is exceedingly essential to us. To prepare for the transition from school to society, college students should take part in a variety of internships and social activities to improve our sensitivity to politics, economics and education. An internship with an international organization is a great option.

Since January, I have been working at Ariel Foundation International (AFI) . AFI promotes partnerships, peace and prosperity through entrepreneurship via education, experience through service, leadership and support of children, young people and their communities worldwide. We believe in the leadership and entrepreneurship of young people, support the development of young children, and advocate peace and cooperation.All these happen to coincide with my own value orientation.

During my time at AFI, I was exposed to many international sources.I attended UN conferences, wrote publications after meetings, shared my ideas with young leaders from other countries and received opinions from others. All these are extremely important to me as I long for a larger information exchange platform.

Two publications with which I was specifically involved were AFI Changemakers at the UN for Holocaust Remembrance and AFI Changemakers at the United Nation's Expert Mechanism on the Right to Development.

In the former one, I wrote an article called Gender Inequality in Education - Focusing on Girls' Education. This article is based on my own experience. When I worked as a volunteer teacher in a village in a rural area, I found that the local people had already defined the social roles

9

of boys and girls, and in this case they were not given any choice at all.

Girls are out of school mainly because of poverty, culture, society, mindset and so on. And these factors are deeply related to the development of a country. The World Bank says that girls’ education is one of the best investments that a country can make. It helps to positively impact nine of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. When girls are educated, the problems in health, nutrition,employment can get some positive impact. Therefore, it’s of great significance for us to pay attention to the problem of girls returning to school and gender inequality in education. This is something I've always wanted to talk about, and I'm glad AFI has given me a platform and an opportunity to share my perspective with others.

In the publication AFI Changemakers at the United Nation's Expert Mechanism on the Right to Development, I explored the topic of What Can the Right to Development Entitle People. After attending the meeting and reading relevant literature, I realized that there are limits to the development of countries that have lost its right to development. I believe the same is true for people. The development of a country should always be people-centered, put the well-being of the people at the top priority and strengthen international cooperation to deal with worldwide crisis.

In addition to the publication writing, our group of AFI China leaders organized a Chinese Club to express the spiritual outlook of Chinese youth on a different theme each week. In this process, Dr.King, our director, gave us enough freedom to develop weekly themes and publish them on social media in the form of videos and articles.

As the person responsible for the video group, I have produced a lot and gained a lot in these times of content production. In this process, my team members and I tried various forms to present our theme. From the single interview form to the introduction of content, from the release of long videos to the transition to short videos, we tried a lot and overturned a lot. Up to now, we are still trying to explore a more attractive way of presentation in different forms.

The first theme of our Chinese Club was related to young people's preferences. I invited seven or eight people from different regions with different hobbies to talk about their ideas. At the beginning, both editing and expression were simple, which was the beginning of our groping for progress. Later, when talking about music-related topics, I paid more attention to the selection of interviewees and invited relevant practitioners, which improved the professional knowledge of the interview. As a result, our club has changed from simple sharing to popularization of professional knowledge.

I am an English major student studying in Shanghai Normal University. As the most widely spoken language in the world, the study of English is more than the study of a language. It also includes the survey of English-speaking countries and even the study of the world picture.

Participating in the work of international organizations is a good practice opportunity to enhance the understanding of global governance and global culture.

Respect for other cultures is the basis of participating in global governance, and respect for one's own culture is also an issue that cannot be ignored. At the first meeting, Dr.King repeatedly

10

asked us to refer to ourselves by our own names rather than by an English one. She said that having a foreign name shows respect to other cultures, but in an international organization, we should respect different cultures from all over the world, and let others learn to respect our own culture. Therefore, it is essential to use our own name rather than a foreign one. This struck me a lot.

My own plan for the future is quite clear. After finishing my undergraduate study, I hope to go to English-speaking countries to conduct further research and study on international relations and global affairs. After that, I am eager to use my professional knowledge and practical experience to work in international organizations and devote myself to global governance.

半载之途 杨浩强 国际组织的实习给了我不一样的视角，不一样的体验感。以前都是生活在一个相对封闭 的舒适圈，面对困难也总是想办法去拖延。国际组织改变我拖拖拉拉的毛病。我逐渐给自己 生活作息制定了计划书，故事也在逐渐朝着预期的发展，未来的期待值也在不断增强。 历经几个月的实习提升的不仅仅是表面的口语水平，拓展的知识面，更多的是心理的变 化，更多是面对困难的解决之道。从容面对逐渐成为我的应对麻烦的态度。同时在这短短的 几个月我遇到了一群很优秀的伙伴，他们的出色的表达能力让我印象深刻，每个人都有自己 的闪光点，也让我看到人外有人，永远不要狂妄自傲，也不可轻易妄自菲薄，因为你所拥有 的或许也是别人所渴望的。 因为我的专业是法律，国际组织的这段经历让我对于涉外的组织有了一定的了解，自身 本身也修过国际私法和国际公法的相关课程，理论与实践的结合也让我对于国际线之外组织 有了自己更深刻的认知。未来我希望从事一些涉外的法律实务，而这一次国际组织远程实习 的体验则是一场契机，成为我涉外经历的第一站。我相信这次国际远程实习将在我未来的实 务之中留下宝贵的记忆。未来加油！

Half a Year’s Journey Haoqiang Yang Internships in international organizations have given me a different perspective and a different sense of experience. In the past, they all lived in a relatively closed comfort zone, and always tried to procrastinate in the face of difficulties. International organizations have changed my procrastination. I have gradually developed a plan for my life, work and rest. The story is also gradually moving towards the expected development, and the expectations for the future are also increasing.

After several months of internship, what has improved is not only the superficial oral English level and expanded knowledge, but also more psychological changes and more solutions to difficulties. Being calm has gradually become my attitude to dealing with trouble. At the same time, in these short months, I met a group of excellent partners, whose excellent expression ability impressed me deeply. Everyone has his own shining point, and also let me see that there are people outside the people. Never be arrogant and arrogant, nor easily belittle yourself, because what you have may also be what others desire.

Because my major is law, my experience in international organizations has given me a certain understanding of foreign-related organizations. I have also taken relevant courses in private international law and public international law. The combination of theory and practice has also given me a deeper understanding of organizations outside the international line. In the future, I hope to engage in some foreign-related legal practice, and this experience of distance internship in international organizations is an opportunity to become the first stop of my foreign-related experience. I believe this international distance practice will leave a valuable memory in my future practice. Come on in the future!

与 AFI 一起的旅程 朱佩玮 我是朱佩玮，是一名法学专业的新生。我并不是一个善于表达自己的想法以及主动和新 认识的人进行沟通的人。所以在我参与进这段实习之初，是十分忐忑与不安的。我虽然渴望 与不同的人进行交流，但同时我也觉得我并没有准备好面对国内国外这么多如此不同的人， 尤其是要如此频繁地使用英语。 但从和 Dr.King 的第一次一对一会面到后面进行的一次次每周例会，我从中感受到的是 Dr.King 对我们的支持和鼓励。她总是在说我们非常优秀，鼓励我们不要怕犯错，多用英语 表达，并且十分尊重我们的文化。在这一周周的实习中，我觉得我变得更勇敢了，能够比以 前更加轻松自如地说出自己的想法。同时也锻炼了我的英语能力，尤其是听力水平，虽然仍 旧不算太好，但是相较最开始已经有了一些进步。 沟通能力与英语是我认为对于一个法律专业的学生很重要的两个部分，因为我们会面对 很多不同的人，我们需要了解他们的故事与他们的需求，所以我们需要沟通能力，而英语能 力在非诉讼业务中则有着很高的需求。我非常有幸在这个实习过程中，将这两点都有了锻炼。 除了这两点，我觉得还有一点非常受益的是，在通过这段时间接触许多没有尝试过的事务以 后，我觉得自己能做得比我原本想象的要多，这真的给我带来了很大的鼓舞。

这是第一次一对一沟通时候拍下的照片 This picture was taken during the first one-on-one communication 在实习过程中，我还参与了 social media 组的工作，帮助运营 B 站的账号。我以前一直 都很想尝试做一个 B 站的账号，但是一直没有付出行动，正好这一次帮助 AFI 运营账号， 也是满足了我的一个愿望。在这段时间，我们已经发布了视频 13 个，专栏 10 个，涉及了大 约 7 个相关主题。通过这样的经历，在以后我想要运营我自己的账号的时候，我相信也会是 很有用的经验。

Special Journey with AFI Peiwei Zhu My name is Peiwei Zhu, a freshmen majored in law. I think I am not the type that like to express my thought and can communicate to someone new initiatively.

So when I participated in this internship (or as Dr.King says it's a leadership), I felt uneasy.

Although I desired to communicate with different people , I also felt that I’m not ready to face so many different people domestic and abroad, especially I need to use English frequently. But since the first one-on-one meeting with Dr.King and the weekly meetings afterwards, I had felt the support and encouragement from Dr.King. She is always says how wonderful we are, encourage us don't be afraid to make mistakes in English and express more in English, also she is so respectful to our culture. From the internship till now, I think I become more brave, I can show my thought more easily than before. At the same time also exercise my English ability, especially the listening skills. It's still not so well now, but it has been some progress.

In my point of view, communication skills and English ability are two important part for a law student, because we will face various people, and we need to know their experience and what they want, that's why we need communication skills. And also English has the very high demand in the non-lawsuit business. I am very lucky in this internship process, have the exercise of both parts.

Besides, I think it's also very rewarding because I've tried a lot of things that I haven't tried before, and I feel like I can do more than I thought I could, which is really inspiring.

During the internship, I also worked with the social media group to help run the bilibili account. I had always wanted to run a account myself but I hadn’t try it. At this time help AFI to run this account was sort of a fulfillment of my wish.In that time, we've published 13 videos, 10 columns, and about seven related topics. If I were to run my own account in the future, I believe this would be a very valuable experience.

国际组织开展的人权参与发展活动 ——让我们以 ARIEL 国际基金会为例 张天依 今天，世界各国都意识到发展问题。其中，发展权的前提是人是发展进程的中心主体。 这是一个全面的经济、社会、文化和政治进程，其目的是不断改善整个人口，但同时要注意 个人的需要。因此，我们每个人都应该积极参与，这也是国家对发展权的发展追求。 几天前，我读了爱丽儿基金会国际的出版物，AFI 变革者在人权理事会关于发展权的报 告，它作为一个国际组织在人权问题上的责任给我留下了深刻的印象。 首先，关于发展问题和问题，从人权发展、基本需要、边缘化群体和多国公司的角度 进行了认真的分析。发展权旨在强调个人及其权利的中心地位。然而，关于人权和发展权的 主要问题是，在国内发展实践中，人们认为自决和人的尊严缺乏尊重。McCook 认为，通过 简单地规定个人的权利，国际社会假设工作已经完成;然而，在现实中，人的尊严是如何被 定义、解释和实施的，不仅由人权理事会成员国，而且由民间社会的成员国，都存在很大的 差异。如今，全世界无法充分获得满足其基本需求所需的一切的人数，这给该计划的未来带 来了严重的障碍。此外，边缘化群体造成的问题是一个周期性过程。一些社会群体缺乏社会 经济机会，导致其人权受到侵犯。对社会某些阶层人权的侵犯反过来又阻碍了发展进程。 此外，一些有用的建议如下。 首先，有必要在联合国内部和其他国际组织之间建立更大的机构联系，以便在所有实 践中落实人权方面有更大的明确性和流动性。国际组织之所以应该参与进来，是因为在许多 国家正在发展中面临挑战的发展背景下，它们之间在促进和落实人权方面负有共同的责任。 联合国可以成为在人权理事会内倡导战略和有意义的实际活动（例如向残疾人伸出热情之手， 以便落实人权发展权）的重要作用。 此外，世界各国政府应注意必须全面评估供应和便利问题，特别是对发展中国家和地 区而言。没有有效的政策、便利和法律，全球南方的许多国家最终都会被抛在后面。不平等 问题还可能加剧支持发展的不同水平和能力。因此，需要逐州评估政府解决这些问题的能力。 最后，那些生活受到不良增长战略影响的人参与决策，以及发展项目的自我管理，作 为基本需求议程的一个重要部分。 令人费解的是，为发展中国家作出发展决定的人往往是对有关国家特有的需要或程序没 有真正利害关系或认识的机构和个人。因此，建议加强与直接受发展程序影响的人的参与和 协商，因为这将使追求发展权成为一项普遍规范，更有针对性和更有效率，因为它考虑到了 资源和能力建设最有针对性的第一手例子，通过与边远社区和边缘化群体的成员交谈，可以 确保发展将传播到最偏远的地方。

Human Right to Development Activities from International Organizations —LET’S LEARN FROM ARIEL FOUNDATION INTERNATIONAL AS AN EXAMPLE

Tianyi Zhang Today, countries all around the world are aware of the issue of development. Among them, the human right to development is based on the prerequisite that the human person is the central subject of the development process. It is a comprehensive economic, social, cultural and political process, which aims at the constant improvement of whole populations, but be simultaneously mindful of the needs of the individual. So, we everyone should be an active participant, and it’s the state’s development pursuits for right to development too.

Some days ago, I have read a publication by Ariel Foundation International, AFI CHANGEMAKERS AT THE HUMAN RIGHTS COUNCIL REPORT ON THE RIGHT TO DEVELOPMENT，which impressed me by its responsibilities as an international organization for human right issue.

To begin with, about the development issues and problems, there are careful analysis in terms of human right development, basic needs, marginalized groups and multinational cooperation. The right to development aims to emphasize the centrality of the individual and their rights.

Nevertheless, the predominant issue regarding human rights and the right to development is a perceived lack of respect for self-determination and human dignity in domestic development practices. McCook argued that by simply setting out the rights of individuals, the international community assumes that the work is done; however, in reality there is much discrepancy between how human dignity is defined, interpreted an implemented-not only by member states of the Human Rights Council but also those in Civil Society. These days, the amount of people worldwide who cannot sufficiently access everything they need to fulfil their basic needs, which presents the future of the program with serious hurdles. Additionally, the problem that results from marginalized groups is a cyclical process. the lack of socio-economic access of some societal groups contributes to the violation of their human rights. The violation of the human rights of certain sectors of society in turn hinders the process of development.

Besides, some useful recommendations are as follows.

First of all, there is a necessity for greater institutional links within the United Nations and between other international organizations, for greater articulation and fluidity in the implementation of human rights in all practices. The reason why international organizations should get involved is due to the fact that there is a shared responsibility between them to promote and implement human rights in a development context where many countries are developing facing challenges. UN can become an essential role in advocating strategies within the human rights council and meaningful practical activities such as offering a warm hand to the disable so that human right to development can be enforced.

17

Besides, government all over the world should pay attention to necessity of a full assessment of the issue of provision and facilitate, especially for developing countries and areas. Without the effective policies, facilitates and law, many countries in the global south are ultimately left behind. Problems of inequality can also exacerbate the different levels and capabilities for supporting development. Therefore, there needs to be a state-by-state assessment of governments capability for these problems.

In the end, participation of people in decision-making whose lives have been affected by poor growth strategies, and self-management of development projects as an important part of the basic needs agenda. It is perplexing phenomenon that often those making developmental decisions for developing countries are bodies and individuals with no real stake or awareness in the needs or procedures that are unique to the state in question. Therefore, it is recommended that is heightened participation and consultation with people directly impacted by development procedure, as this will make the pursuit of the right to development as a universal norm better targeted and more efficient, as it takes into consideration first-hand examples of where resources and capacity building could be best targeted. By talking to members of remote communities and marginalized groups, there is the assurance that development will spread to the most remote of places.

The Internet Connects the World --Delivering Our Voices at AFI Online Internships Wang Yu I am Wang Yu, a sophomore from Capital Normal University, majoring in History and minoring in English. During my studies, I am very interested in the history and culture of the world, and I hope to participate in internships with international organizations to meet students from different countries and schools and expand my horizons.

Since officially joining AFI as an intern on March 21, I have participated in weekly meetings and social media groups. During the internship, my partners and I worked together to identify different topics each week and posted the work done by the video and text teams on social media such as Instagram so that people from all over the world could see our work. I was very happy and proud to see our work receiving likes and comments from others.

During these months of my internship, I not only improved my English speaking and listening skills, but also learned in depth how to use some apps and computers’ technology. When facing difficulties, my partners and I faced them together and came up with solutions, which made me feel the power of teamwork. After completing our weekly tasks, we also shared what we had seen and learned about our lives and studies, which allowed me to learn from the strengths of my peers.

Although my internship at AFI is not over yet, I believe that this experience will be a valuable memory in my life experience and I have learned a lot from it.

成为青年领导者，为社会做出贡献 李文远 我作为一名大一新生，能够在国际组织中实习是非常幸运的事情。一开始与主管用全英 文交流是不习惯的，对摄像头都会感到陌生与不自在。但之后在例会的交流、合作之中，我 不再畏惧展现自己，能够自然而然地使用英语。我相信提升口语表达能力会让我未来的职业 工作更加顺利，懂得如何在小组里明确自己的地位，学会协调工作与生活的关系、劳逸结合。 这次实习无疑会为我的职业发展提供很大的帮助！主管对于我们的工作要求非常的开放和自 由，希望我们能通过类似于发展权讨论会的交流会推动人类发展事业，有自己独到的看法和 贡献，另外每周的例会上，也对我们未展开的活动内容进行了初步的解释，主管希望我们能 够更加自如地表达我们的看法。比如通过学习和研究人类发展权的历史，增强了我们对于人 类权利的实施可行性与目的性的认识，也希望通过我们的整理和报告，让更多的人们知道发 展权的历程。用自己的思维讲述独到的看法，同时利于吸收他人的精华。 在实习工作的过程中，我们让世界看到了中国的强大与自信！让更多的国际友人了解、 喜爱中国的文化、美食、美景！另外，一些有关帮助孩子或维护妇女权利的工作让我明白了 世界需要和平、团结、友爱，大家一起研究社会问题有助于促进社会共同发展和进步。 感谢 AFI！让我有机会在国际组织中认识到许多好朋友和热情认真的主管！这次实习 就像一次神奇的体验，令我印象最深的就是在 ins 上分享了同事完成的作品，收获了许多点 击量与肯定。 总之，这次实习工作对我来说是宝贵的体验，增加了我的见识与经验，希望以后能继续 参与 AFI 的活动或者工作！

以青春之名，赴国际之约 李欣颜 不知不觉间，在 AFI 为期 6 个月的实习已经过了 5 个月。这次实习无疑是人生中难忘 而宝贵的经历。世界那么大，文化那么美，到 AFI 最大的感受就是尊重与包容。尊重来自 不同国家的人，不同的文化，不同的习俗。我们的主管金博士十分友善，她无时无刻不在鼓 励我们去头脑风暴，去学习，去实践，去展现青年的领导力和创造力。她给我们分享她的经 历，并且希望影响更多的青年人为世界贡献自己的智慧。在她身上我明白了中国的古话:“爱 人者，人恒爱之；敬人者，人恒敬之”。 我是桂林电子科技大学法学类本科一年级的学生。在 AFI 实习期间，参加了联合国人 权理事会多次线上的讨论和会议。对于发展权这样的一个法律概念有了更深的认识。同时对 于国际法也有了更多的接触和了解，为以后学习专业课也打下了良好的基础。国际法院大法 官拉赫斯曾说过这样一句话“不可否认，国际组织的建立导致国际舞台产生了前所未有的稳 定。”这从一个侧面反映出国际组织对国际法所产生的重要的影响。在实习过程中，我深刻 地感受到平等的基础上的对话在国际交流中的重要性。 在 AFI 的这次实习中，我也希望用自己的力量让世界听到中国青年的声音，也希望更 多的国际友人了解中国文化。我们通过写作，视频制作，线上采访，社交账号运营等方式， 每周确定不同的主题，大都是关于中国文化的内容，希望能有人关注我们。点点滴滴在成长 学习，外语的沟通环境也让我的英语水平有所提升。最为期待的是工作过程中，不同文化、 不同思想间的碰撞和交融，常常让我有新的体会与进步，同时也让我体会到世界的边界，远 比我所了解的更为广阔。 感谢这次 AFI 的实习，感谢金博士的热情友善。我感受到了这个世界的丰富多彩，我 心态更加开放包容，更加热爱生活。永远期待下一次的任务！

Some Footprints of Exploring the World Xinyue Cheng Hello, I am Xingyue Cheng from China, and my major is accounting. Here I will introduce myself and this internship experience from four aspects.

The first aspect is the study ability. During my school years, I worked hard on my school courses and got a GPA of 4.0 or higher in Accounting Cognitive Practice, Intermediate Financial Accounting, Tax Law Comprehensive Lab, and Decision Making Accounting. In addition to the school courses, I have taken ACCA CPA courses and passed the following five exams: Accountants and Business, Managerial Accounting, Financial Accounting, Corporate Law and Business, and Tax Law. I am currently preparing for my sixth financial management exam, and I expect to pass all 13 exams in the next year or so to obtain my CPA certificate.

The second aspect is personality. According to the MBTI test results, I am a checker type. My personality traits are quiet, conscientious, and follow through. I am practical, I value facts, and I am able to work out what needs to be done in a reasonable manner and finish it with determination, without being distracted by external things. I take pleasure in doing things in an orderly and organized manner at work, at home and in life. My career tendencies are more suited to managers, administrators, law enforcement, and accountants.

The third area is in terms of award-winning experience. 2019, I attended the school's training and obtained the GYB Innovation and Entrepreneurship Certificate. 2020, I participated in the Gorton Word Punch and passed the 100-person online exam, winning the third prize in the King of All Words Hero List. 2020, from March to September, I participated in the National Famous Enterprise Challenge held by Gorton and won the title of Outstanding Business Trader.

During this competition, I analyzed the prospect of college English APP by searching information, using PEST and SWOT analysis methods, giving a report, using professional knowledge plus industry research analysis, giving market prospect analysis and putting forward reasonable hypothesis. 2021, I participated in the classic book report competition of drawing strength from party history and firmly setting ideal beliefs, and won the third prize of the college-level team. In addition, I participated in the online retracing of the Long March and learning and education quiz held by the Ministry of Education, and won the certificate of Chinese students online.

The fourth area is club activities and internship experience. For club activities, I joined the school's host etiquette team, mainly responsible for maintaining the order of activities and hosting etiquette. In addition, I also participated in the election and reform of the student council as a student representative.

In terms of my internship experience, I worked as an audit assistant for Zhitong CPA from January to March 2022, and was responsible for the outgoing, incoming, inputting and reconciliation of nearly 3,000 pieces of account information for the business. I also completed

26

random voucher checks, locating and checking large bills, revenue and logistics statement checks, transportation detail reconciliation, billing reconciliation of personal flow, R&D expenses and large receipt reconciliation. In addition, on behalf of Zhitong CPA Firm, I went to more than dozens of banks such as Bank of China, China Construction Bank and Huaxia Bank to obtain corporate statements and account opening lists together with cashiers, lawyers and brokerage firms.

From January to the present, I joined Ariel Foundation International for an online internship.

I am mainly responsible for the copy editing of the Chinese club and the dissemination of Chinese culture, showing the world the interests and daily life of Chinese youth and showing them the charm of China. At the same time, I learned about energy development in Africa, the current status of sustainable energy development, and prepared PowerPoint presentations to communicate with my peers. I also got to know the issues of sustainable business development, why sustainable development is needed, and what should be done to reach sustainable business development. I also saw international organizations helping Lithuanian children travel around Europe, helping them discuss their views on sensitive issues with adults, developing their leadership skills, and recognizing how much they value, respect and encourage the development of their children. In the international organization, I was exposed to some activities experiences as well as friends that college students are not exposed to in their college courses, and I am honored to have this internship experience and to be involved in the international organization, which will be something I will never forget.

家国情怀的再度觉醒 朱怡菲 转眼之间，我已经在 AFI 实习了 5 个月了，下个月的这个时候，或许就是我即将与 AFI 告别的日子。 临别之际，我又不自觉地回想起了刚入 AFI 时，自己因为心生感慨，而在微信朋友圈 里写下的话语：“我习惯性地报出了我的英文名，然而，金博士却说，本着尊重各国文化背 景的目的，她希望了解我的本名。这虽然只是一件小事，然而却让我第一次感到，自己受到 了应有的尊重。”我想，这就是为何我迄今为止仍对那天与金博士的初次见面记忆犹新的原 因。 AFI 是一个开放包容的大家庭，这一点毋庸置疑。作为加入这一国际组织的第一批中国 实习生，一开始，我既兴奋，又紧张。兴奋固然是因为第一次投简历就顺利得到了国际组织 的实习机会，而紧张，却是因为担心自己中国人的身份，在国际组织当中，可能会面临的种 种不友好现象。由于我同时在美国加州州立大学圣贝纳迪诺分校就读会计学学士学位，我深 知中国在国际舞台上的形象，并没有我们国人了解到的那么好，甚至有时，因为一些刻意的 曲解和误会，中国人往往会被偏见中伤，受到不应有的歧视。我正是因为亲眼看见自己的同 学在美国受到了不公平对待，才对此深感忧虑。 但是，令我感到讶异并且感动的是，金博士，这位 AFI 的创始人之一，自始至终致力 于在 AFI 当中消除刻板印象和偏见，呼吁来自不同地区、不同国家的人们精诚合作，信任 彼此，尊重对方的文化和思想。是她对我提出了“成为一名创变者”的期望，也是她鼓励我 说，“你的英语说得很好，可以试着成为一名代表，去为你的国家，为你的文化发声” 。 正是这样一番话唤醒了我。我感动之余，总不免有些羞愧，因为在我大学三年的求学生 涯当中，受西方文化的影响，我的初心已经被我渐渐淡忘了。我曾经怀着一腔热血选择了中 美联合培养的项目，满心希望自己未来能成为对我的祖国作出贡献的人才，可如今，我却忘 却了祖国，一心只想留洋，在海外寻求出路。金博士的话虽简单，于我而言，却是振聋发聩。 我不由地回望自己的人生道路，这二十余年来所经历的一切风雨坎坷，难道仅仅是为了 满足我将来的一己之私而作的铺垫吗？不是的，不应该是这样。 尽管此时此刻，我的力量依然十分渺小，但我却是祖国的一份子，是中华文化的传承者 之一。AFI 为我提供的一次又一次机遇让我情不自禁地想为祖国做点什么，为推动中华文化 走向世界而做些什么。于是，我开始尝试自己曾经从来不会主动去做的事情：为介绍中国的 事情撰写文章、编辑刊物；为弘扬中华文化而制作短视频，等等。 在 AFI 的这几个月，是我的家国情怀再度觉醒的时期，于我而言，它承载的，不仅仅是一 段实习生涯，更是我的一腔热血，和为祖国奉献自己的一生的决心。

The Reawakening of My Patriotism Yifei Zhu In a blink of an eye, I have been an AFI intern for 5 months, and this time next month may be the day I will say goodbye to AFI. As I parted, I unconsciously recalled what I wrote in the WeChat Moments when I first joined AFI: “ I habitually reported my English name, however, Dr. King said that for the purpose of respecting the cultural background of various countries, she wanted to know my real name.

Although this was only a small thing, it made me feel for the first time that I was respected.” I think, this is the reason why my first meeting with Dr. King that day is still fresh in my memory.

There is no doubt that AFI is an open and inclusive family. As the first batch of Chinese interns to join this international organization, I was both excited and nervous at first. The excitement is of course because it was the first time that I submitted my resume and I successfully got an internship opportunity in an international organization. However, I was nervous because I was worried about my Chinese identity and the various unfriendly phenomena that I might face in an international organization. Since I am also studying a bachelor ’ s degree in Accounting at California State University, San Bernardino, I am well aware that China ’ s image on the international stage is not as good as what our Chinese people understand, and even sometimes, due to some deliberate misunderstandings, Chinese people are often slandered by prejudice and undeserved discrimination. It is precisely because I saw with my own eyes that my classmates were treated unfairly in the United States that I was deeply concerned about this.

However, what amazed and moved me is that Dr. King, one of the founders of AFI, has always been committed to eliminating stereotypes and prejudices in AFI, calling on people from different regions and countries to cooperate sincerely and trust each other, respect each other’s culture and ideas. She was the one who made the expectation of me to “become a changemaker” and she encouraged me by saying that, “ You speak English well, try to be a representative for your country, and your culture.”

It was these words that woke me up. In addition to being touched, I cannot help but feel a little ashamed, because during my three-year university study career, under the influence of Western culture, my original intention has been gradually forgotten by me. I used to choose the Sino-US joint training program with passion and hope that I can become a talent who can contribute to my motherland in the future, but now, I have forgotten my motherland and only want to study abroad and seek a way out overseas. Although Dr. King’s words are simple, to me, they are deafening.

I cannot help but look back on my own life path. Are all the ups and downs I have experienced in the past twenty years just a foreshadowing to satisfy my own selfishness in the future? No, they should not be.

Although at this moment, my strength is still very small, but I am a part of China and one of the inheritors of Chinese culture. The opportunities AFI has provided me again and again made me want to do something for China and to promote Chinese culture to the world. So, I started to try

29

things that I would never do on my own initiative: writing articles and editing publications to introduce things in China; making short videos to promote Chinese culture, and so on.

The past few months in AFI have been a period of re-awakening of my patriotism. For me, it carries not only an internship career but also my passion to contribute the rest of my life to my motherland.
