3月4日周一 18:30 促进性别平等与女性经济赋权：与在上海工作的女性外交官对话
Monday, March 4, 18:30 Advancing Gender Equality and Women’s EconomicEmpowerment Around the World: A Panel Discussion with Female Diplomats Servingin Shanghai
每年三月的妇女历史月期间，包括美国在内的世界各国都会以各种形式来纪念和回顾女性对于社会和全球进步作出的重大贡献。妇女历史月也是一种行动呼吁，提醒我们要支持妇女运动，努力建立一个更加公平和公正的社会。尽管女性在各个领域已经取得了巨大成就，但从职场到社会文化领域，女性的进步空间仍然巨大。今年，联合国妇女历史月的主题是“平等思考、集思广益、创新变革”。今年二月，美国启动了由白宫领导的“妇女全球发展和繁荣”倡议。在这两大主题的影响下，我们邀请您到上海美国中心与来自美国、阿根廷、和比利时的女性外交官们进行一场坦诚又有启发性的对话。几位外交官将会讨论世界各地的国家、组织和人民是如何在促进性别平等和女性经济赋权问题上作出的创新努力。外交官Anum Malik将会主持整场讨论，她在上海美领馆公民社会工作小组负责女性议题。
Every March, during Women’sHistory Month, the United States and countries across the world commemorate andreflect on women’s contemporary and historicalcontributions to society and global progress. Women’sHistory Month also serves as a call to action to maintain momentum in supportof women’s movements and to work towards a more fairand just society. While women have made tremendous gains, significant room forprogress remains for women in the workplace, as entrepreneurs, and in culturalaspects. This year, the official United Nations theme for Women’s History Month is, “Think Equal,Build Smart, Innovate for Change.” This February, theUnited States launched the White House-led Women’sGlobal Development and Prosperity Initiative.

3月5日周二 18:30 自由、平等与正义——从殖民时期的美国到美国革命
Tuesday, March 5, 18:30 Whydo Americans value liberty, equality, and justice? A deep dive into colonialAmerica and the events that led to the American Revolution.
从三月起，上海美国中心将推出“了解当代美国”月度讲座系列，由上海美领馆的公共外交专员Omair M. Mirza主讲。3月5日的第一场讲座中，Omair将会介绍美国人珍视的价值——自由、平等、正义——背后的历史渊源。要更好地了解当代美国，就绕不开对一些历史事件和话题的理解，例如十四和十五世纪的欧洲人民的生活状况、是什么促使了一些欧洲人前往美洲大陆、美洲殖民地与英国之间的紧张关系、美国革命以及独立宣言等等。尽管整个过程中充满了坎坷、斗争和冲突，但正是这段历史成就了今天的美国，一个追求开放、平等、包容、公正的社会。在加入美领馆工作前，Omair曾在华盛顿国会山工作，担任某众议员的立法助理。
On Tuesday March 5th, Public Diplomacy AssistantOmair M. Mirza will launch a monthly series in the Shanghai American Center,Contemporary Topics in U.S. Government. Join us as Omair introduces theAmerican values of liberty, equality, and justice, and discusses how—and to what extent—colonial Americanexperiences reflected these values. Understanding America today requires aconsideration of some important historical events and processes, including:14th and 15th century Europe and the lives of everyday people; what factors promptedsome Europeans to immigrate to (what would become) the United States ofAmerica; relations and tensions between Britain and American colonies; theAmerican Revolution; and the Declaration of Independence. The history and rootsof the American experiment--though marked by uneven progress, seismicstruggles, and violent conflicts—continue to bear fruitand propel forward an America that welcomes immigrants, strives for equalityand inclusion, and a just and equitable society. Previously, Omair worked forseveral years on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC as a Legislative Assistant to aU.S. Congressman.
