Ukuhamba ngezindiza kuthatha i-IY2017 kuze kube yizinyawo ezingama-35,000

Ngenkathi iNhlangano Yezizwe Ezihlangene imemezela u-2017 njengoNyaka Wamazwe Ngamazwe Wezokuvakasha Okusimeme For Development (IY2017), kwakungezona nje izinjongo zokuthumela imiyalezo ukubaluleka komkhakha wezokuvakasha ohlelweni lomhlaba wonke lwe-UN. Ukuqwashisa bekuyingxenye encane yenhloso.

Izinsuku ezingama-365 okwakugxilwe kuzo kwakumayelana nokuhlanganisa izinyathelo ezingama-360-degree kulo lonke uchungechunge lwenani lomkhakha - ukuqinisekisa ukuthi alukho usuku oluchithwayo emzamweni wokuqinisa ikhono lezokuvakasha lokweseka intuthuko yomhlaba wonke.

Umlayezo we-IY2017 ovela kuNobhala-Jikelele we-HE United Nations, u-Antonio Guterres ubucacile:

“Nsuku zonke, izivakashi ezingaphezu kwezigidi ezintathu ziwela imingcele yamazwe ngamazwe. Njalo ngonyaka, cishe abantu abayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-1.2 bavakashela kwamanye amazwe. Ezokuvakasha seziyinsika yezomnotho, incwadi yokungena empumelelweni, namandla okuguqula impilo yezigidigidi. Umhlaba ungakwazi futhi kufanele usebenzise amandla ezokuvakasha njengoba silwela ukwenza i-Ajenda ka-2030 Yentuthuko Eqhubekayo.”

Ngokushesha iqaphela indima yabo kanye nesibopho ekuhlanganiseni isixhumanisi sabo ochungechungeni lwe-IY2017, imboni yezindiza - umgudu omkhulu wezokuvakasha nokuhweba emhlabeni jikelele - yaqhubekela phambili, yazibophezela ku-IY2017 ukusuka ezingeni eliphansi kuya ku-35,000ft.

AMANDLA EZEMVELO EMVA, KANYE NAKW, IY2017

Uma kukhulunywa ngezokuvakasha emhlabeni jikelele, ukuhamba kwezindiza okusigcina sibheke phezulu. Njengoba kushiwo u-Alexandre de Juniac, uMqondisi Jikelele we-IATA kanye ne-CEO:

“Usuku ngalunye abagibeli abangaba izigidi eziyishumi bagibela izindiza. Futhi izindiza ezingu-10 zizobayisa ngokuphepha lapho beya khona. Izindiza zinomthelela omkhulu emhlabeni wethu. Kulo nyaka kuzothuthwa abantu abayizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezine kanye nempahla emathani ayizigidi ezingu-100,000. Ezokuthutha ngezindiza emhlabeni wonke zithembeke kangangokuthi umthelela wazo omuhle ekuphileni kwethu kwansuku zonke ungase ungabonakali—ukuxhumanisa abantu ezindaweni ezikude, ukuxhumanisa amabhizinisi nezimakethe zomhlaba, kwenezela okuhlangenwe nakho kwangempela emhlabeni wonke ekufundiseni kwentsha yethu, ukudala amathuba emisebenzi eyamukela izivakashi futhi etholakalayo. iplanethi ohambweni lokuhlola.”

Isekela i-IY2017 ngenkuthalo, nge-ATAG - i-Air Transport Action Group www.atag.org - "okuwukuphela kwenhlangano yomhlaba wonke yemboni yonkana yokuhlanganisa bonke abadlali bemboni yezindiza ukuze bakhulume ngazwi linye," umkhakha wezokundiza uhambisana nawo. i UNWTOumkhankaso womhlaba wonke, ukhulisa imiyalezo ewumongo nge-IY2017 ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukuthi imboni yezokundiza emhlabeni wonke ikhona.

Kungani? Ngoba, ngamazwi ka-Haldane Dodd, Inhloko Yezokuxhumana ye-ATAG:

“Ukweseka kwe-ATAG uNyaka Wamazwe Ngamazwe Wezokuvakasha Okusimeme Kwentuthuko kuzosiza ekuqinisekiseni ukuthi ukusimama ngokucophelela nohlelo lokuguquguquka kwesimo sezulu esilubekile lwezindiza lungahambisana nesidingo sokucabanga ngalezi zinkinga kuwo wonke umkhakha.”

Ekugcineni, noma ngabe yisiphi isikhundla somuntu emkhakheni, ukuxhumana kwabo bonke ababambiqhaza kubalulekile uma ezokuvakasha nezokuvakasha zizobamba iqhaza ngokugcwele ekuqinisekiseni ukuthi i-IY2017 yandisa ithuba layo lokwenza uhambo nokuvakasha kube nenjongo, futhi kube nomthelela, ku-ajenda enkulu yentuthuko yomhlaba wonke - ama-SDGs.

Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi ukuxhumana kwemizamo, noma ukuxhumana kwemizila yomoya, okwenza i-IY2017 isebenze kanzima kulo mkhakha yinto engaxoxiswana nayo. U-Dodd uyaqhubeka:

“Ukundiza kungenye yezinto ezihamba phambili emhlabeni wethu. Ukuxhumana okuthuthukisiwe kuyisidingo esibalulekile sokuqonda okwengeziwe, ubudlelwano bebhizinisi obuthuthukisiwe futhi ngokuqondile, kunikeza izigidi zendlela yokuziphilisa. Ukuhamba ngendiza kusiza u-54% wabavakashi ukuthi bafike lapho beya khona futhi ngesikhathi esifanayo kusekela imisebenzi ecishe ibe yizigidi ezingama-63. Kodwa kunendima ebaluleke kakhulu esingayidlala ekusizeni ukuthuthukiswa komnotho kanye nokunyakaziswa komphakathi kubantu yonke indawo: ukukhombisa ubuholi bonke bemboni ngentuthuko esimeme.”

UKUHLANGANA NOMSEBENZI OKHULISIWE

Nakuba i-IY2017 igxile kwezokuvakasha okusimeme ukuze kuthuthukiswe, asikho isizathu sokunciphisa ithuba lonyaka lomthelela emkhakheni wezokuvakasha kuphela. I-Aviation ivumela umlayezo we-IY2017 ukuthi uhambe ezindaweni ezintsha, udale inethiwekhi yokuqwashisa kanye nokumela kweminye imikhakha ehlukene kodwa ehlobene.

I-ATAG yabona ngokushesha leli thuba, futhi isebenzisa ngokuqhubekayo amandla ayo ukuze ithwale UNWTO's IY2017 ngokuqhubekayo. Impendulo esuka ku Dodd:

“Akuzona zonke izingxenye zomhlaba ezingaba nemikhakha emikhulu yezokuvakasha, kodwa bonke abantu emhlabeni bangazuza ekuxhumaneni okucatshangelwe kahle nomakhelwane babo, abalingani babo bebhizinisi nabangane nomndeni nomaphi lapho behlala khona. I-Aviation ilapha ukusiza ukwenza lokho kwenzeke. "

Ukwakhiwa nokugqugquzelwa kobambiswano olufana nalokhu okuzoqinisekisa ukuthi izinzuzo ze-IY2017 zifika kude, kude kakhulu lapho iwashi lishaya phakathi kwamabili ngoDisemba 31, okulethe unyaka wekhalenda ekupheleni.

Isizathu esengeziwe sokuqhubeka ubheka phezulu!
