Shukran.
2
Good morning, Your Highness, Excellencies, friends and colleagues.
3
I would like to thank you for the opportunity to be here today.
4
It's also an honor to join forces with Educated Child, an organization led by a woman who is an amazing role model,
5
a woman who has shown such relentless dedication to getting every child in school.
6
This is such an exciting day for us because it marks the beginning of a new era in my home country, Colombia.
7
Most of you may know me as an artist,
8
as an entertainer, and that's indeed my calling and what I've been doing since I was 13 years old.
9
But I never would have imagined when I started out
10
that my work as an artist would end up being the
11
vehicle for me to serve my greater purpose in life of working towards eradicating poverty through the power of education.
12
As a Colombian citizen, inequality is a concept that sadly one becomes very familiar with at a very young age.
13
It's a country like many others in Latin America, where a few have a lot, a lot have almost nothing,
14
and where if you're born poor, you will almost certainly die poor,
15
and where people don't access equal opportunities.
16
And because of that, generation after generation after generation live trapped in the same vicious cycle fed by prejudice and inaction.
17
Growing up in my country when I was around eight years old,
18
I remember I saw kids my age who instead of being in school were already working in the streets,
19
were barefoot in the park,
20
kids like me whose reality was completely different my mind only because of the circumstances into which they were born.
21
It was really hard for me to accept that, to accept that something so unjust didn't have a solution.
22
There had to be something that could be done.
23
So I often ask myself why the adults around me were
24
so resigned to the fact that these kids who were just like me
25
or even their own children were living in a parallel reality so different and so cruel.
26
As Kofi Annan put it, poverty is intolerable in a world of plenty.
27
So as soon as I had some success, the first thing I wanted to do was to invest as
28
many resources I could into what later would become the most meaningful project of my life, working for children.
29
So I set out to find a team, a team of people who dream big and worked hard
30
and thought like me to help me right the wrongs that I had witnessed throughout my entire childhood.
31
And that's when our foundation, the Barefoot Foundation, P.S.
32
Descalza Foundation was born.
33
I knew, and I was only 18 years old then, but I knew that I wanted to focus on children and improving their lives, but I didn't know where to start.
34
So I really felt that I needed to learn what the roots of inequality and low social mobility were.
35
So I decided to study the reasons why children were working in the streets,
36
or why some children were being recruited by the violent organizations like the paramilitary or the guerrillas.
37
Why were so many children suffering from chronic malnutrition?
38
And I realized that most of the issues that children face in my country had and have a common denominator,
39
the lack of access to quality education.
40
To me, it became crystal clear
41
that education was the surest way to give all of these kids the best fighting chance of improving their circumstances in life,
42
because education is the great equalizer.
43
When I started building schools in Colombia, we chose the most remote areas, areas where there was literally nothing,
44
no infrastructure, no paved roads, no electricity, no potable water and we decided to build in those places
45
but not only build schools but state-of-the-art schools schools with comprehensive models
46
that included ECD programs school feeding programs parent and teacher training
47
and another very important part is we decided to engage the government as a strategic partner
48
and made it nearly impossible for them to say no to
49
doing their part by showing them results through our holistic model that really proved to work.
50
We noticed that as soon as a school is built in those places, everything is transformed.
51
The improvements to the infrastructure were jaw-dropping.
52
Electricity, potable water were made available, made accessible, roads were paved,
53
malnutrition plummeted, but the best part of all is the academic results.
54
The kids really, really responded academically,
55
and now those kids who could have been recruited by the guerrillas or paramilitaries, or that could have had completely different outcomes for their lives,
56
they're now on their way to the university and thriving in their communities.
57
Some of them are athletes, some of them are professionals.
58
That's why I'm so, it really is a thrill to work for education.
59
That's why I'm so passionate about it,
60
because I've really seen results that are as palpable as this podium.
61
And seeing all these success stories that have a name
62
and a last name has been one of the most rewarding things I've done in my lifetime, even more so than winning Grammys, I think.
63
Now.
64
Now, that said, our work is far from being done.
65
Many, many developing countries are still rife with inequality and internal conflict, and there are a lot of kids who still need to be reached.
66
History is not only the past.
67
History is made every day in the present.
68
What matters now is how we go forward and how we fix what's wrong.
69
And that is the real challenge.
70
This is the goal of the SDGs and what people like Her Highness
71
and myself and so many more of you who are adamant about achieving are here for.
72
Facts don't lie, and numbers show what an incredible return on investment a quality education provides.
73
For instance, if all students in low-income countries left primary school with basic reading skills,
74
171 million people could be lifted out of poverty.
75
Systemic change often begins from the bottom up rather than the top down.
76
The government must take responsibility and we should all put as much pressure as we possibly can but the rest of all,
77
the civil society, should also do their part.
78
What we have discovered, both at PS Descalzos and Educated Child, is that many times only one single barrier to entry, such as no access to transportation
79
or basic needs like a functioning bathroom can prevent a kid from attending school
80
or even put them at risk of dropping out.
81
Sometimes all it takes to change a child's life is the security of a hot meal in school
82
or the ease of being able to hop on a bus that will leave you safely at your classroom store.
83
It's as simple as that.
84
And these are simple interventions and they don't cost a lot.
85
The biggest effort really is in mapping the communities, in going door to door,
86
searching for the out of school children, talking to the parents, talking to their families,
87
giving Putting a name and putting a story behind these children is the first step to start rewriting their story.
88
Over the next three years, we pledge to get 54,000 kids who are out of school or at risk of dropout into the educational system.
89
Ultimately, more than 295,000 people will benefit from this project,
90
including children, teachers, families, and community members.
91
New schools and classrooms will be built.
92
School kits and uniforms will be distributed.
93
Children will be enrolled in school feeding and transportation programs.
94
Teachers will be trained in strategies
95
and in how to identify those students who are at risk so they can receive psychosocial support.
96
And we are extremely confident that this partnership is only the beginning
97
and will be the model to replicate throughout my country until not a single child is out of school.
98
This is our responsibility.
99
Thank you.
100
This is our responsibility to our children and our debt to fulfill for the generations to come.
101
Thank you very much.
102
Thank you.

Für wen ist dieses Video geeignet?
Dieses Video eignet sich perfekt für Fortgeschrittene, die ihre Englisch-Kommunikation in formalen Kontexten verbessern wollen. Es hilft, Redeflüssigkeit, Argumentationsstruktur und emotionale Ausdruckstiefe zu trainieren – ideal für Lerner, die an Präsentationen, Reden oder professionellen Gesprächen arbeiten. Auch für Englisch Shadowing ist es ausgezeichnet: Shakiras klare Aussprache und rhythmische Sprache machen es einfach, Muster nachzuahmen.
Wörter und Redewendungen, die man stehlen sollte
- Join forces with: "Zusammenarbeiten mit" – z. B. "Wir joined forces with einem lokalen Verein, um das Projekt zu realisieren."
- Vicious cycle: "Teuflischer Kreis" – "Armut und mangelnde Bildung bilden einen vicious cycle."
- Crystal clear: "Klares Wasser" – "Es war crystal clear, dass Bildung der Schlüssel war."
- State-of-the-art: "Spitzenklasse" – "Die Schule wurde mit state-of-the-art Technik ausgestattet."
Wie man den Akzent richtig bekommt
Shakira spricht mit einem sanften lateinamerikanischen Akzent, der sich durch weiche Vokale und eine rhythmische Betonung auszeichnet. Achte auf:
- Die Aussprache von "eradicating" ([ɪˈrædɪkeɪtɪŋ]) – betone die zweite Silbe.
- Die Flüssigkeit bei zusammengesetzten Wörtern wie "low social mobility" – verbinde die Wörter, um "lowsocialmobility" zu sagen.
- Die Intonation in emotionalen Passagen: Wenn sie von "unjust reality" spricht, senkt sie die Stimme, um Betroffenheit auszudrücken. Nutze ein shadowing site, um ihre Pausen und Tonhöhen genau zu kopieren. Übe "shadow speech" täglich: Höre einen Satz an, pausiere und wiederhole ihn sofort. So trainierst du nicht nur die Aussprache, sondern auch die natürliche Sprachfluss.
Grammatik in diesem Video
Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:
| Struktur | Im Video |
|---|---|
| Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut | were born · could be done · was born |
| Relativsätze who / which + Satz – eine Zusatzinformation über eine Person oder Sache | woman who is · woman who has · kids who were |
| Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist | has shown · I've really seen · has been |
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
