编者按:2024年11月4日,中国人民大学成立全国高校第一所全球领导力学院。斯洛文尼亚前总统、世界领袖联盟主席、中国人民大学重阳金融研究院外籍高级研究员达尼洛·图尔克会上发表视频致辞提出三点建议。现将其发言视频及中英文内容发布如下:
首先,我对中国人民大学全球领导力学院的成立表示祝贺,并预祝新学院取得圆满成功!
我刚在北京参加过中国人民大学主办的“通州·全球发展论坛”。我再次感受到中国人民大学作为中国顶级学府在与世界交流方面做出的努力和取得的成就。
建立全球领导力学院是中国人民大学的一项重大举措,将进一步提升中国人民大学的国际影响力。
过去十年间,我通过与重阳金融研究院的合作与交流,对中国人民大学的了解越来越多,这是中国共产党建立的第一所现代化大学,它诞生于1937年抗日战争的烽火中。时至今日,它已是中国人文社会科学研究领域的顶级大学。为中国共产党治国理政贡献了宝贵智慧、培育了大批人才。
今天,中国正崛起成为全球领导者。这是中国人民大学建立全球领导力学院、培养具有全球领导力的优秀人才、促进中国与世界沟通交流的绝佳时机。
一个全球大国必须至少拥有一个,最好是几个,具有全球领导力的学术机构。在美国,哈佛大学肯尼迪政府学院就是一个典型的例子。通过全球人才的培养和交流,该学院与其他大学一道为巩固二战后美国的世界领导地位做出了重要贡献。
世界上许多国家的一流大学在培育全球领导力方面拥有卓越的学术和研究能力。他们相互交流,比较各自的学术方法和成果。这些都有助于各国发挥全球领导作用。此外,也有助于提升各高校的教学与科研质量。从这个角度来看,我认为中国人民大学全球领导力学院潜力巨大。
今天,在这个特殊场合,我冒昧地提出三点建议,希望对全球领导力学院的未来发展有所帮助:
第一,学院需要具备全球视野。学院应兼具中国特色和全球特色。培养学生的国际视野和沟通能力,邀请来自世界各地的学生,并配备来自世界各地的师资力量。
第二,学院需要面向未来。学院应致力于培养全球人才,寻求当今世界面临的前所未有之挑战的解决之道。绝非仅仅着眼于解决大国之间竞争所产生的政治、经济和其他问题。
学院也须具备寻求非传统危机解决方案的能力,如应对气候变化后果、预防卫生突发事件和促进人工智能的设性使用。
第三,学院需要聚焦创新。我认为这个学院不同于传统的学院,在人才培养和运作机制上都需要创新。
最后,再次祝贺中国人民大学全球领导力学院的成立。我很乐意继续为学院的发展做出贡献。
预祝中国人民大学全球领导力学院取得圆满成功!感谢大家的聆听。

Let me, at the outset, congratulate you for the establishment of School of Global Leadership, Renmin University of China and wish the new School all success!
I just attended the "Tongzhou Global Development Forum" hosted by Renmin University of China in Beijing. Once again I felt the efforts – and achievements - of Renmin University of China, as a top China’s university, in the communication with the world.
The establishment of the School of Global Leadership is a major initiative of Renmin University of China, promoting the rise of a university at the global level.
Over the past ten years, I have learned more and more about Renmin University of China, mainly through cooperation and exchanges with Chongyang Institute for Financial studies. This is the first modern university built by the CPC. It was born in the war in the revolutionary era of 1937.
Now, today, many years later, it is the best university in China in humanities and social sciences studies. It has been contributing much wisdom and talent to the CPC's national governance.
Today, China continues to rise as a global leader. This is the right time for Renmin University of China to build a global leadership school, to cultivate talents aiming at global leadership, and to develop excellence in communication between China and the world.
A global power must have at least one – and preferably several -global leadership academic institutions. In the United States, the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University is a typical example. Through the cultivation and exchange of global talents, the School - together with other universities made an essential contribution to the world leadership of the United States after World War II.
Many countries around the world the leading universities cultivate academic excellence and penetrating research needed for global leadership. They communicate among themselves, they compare their academic methodologies and their achievements.
All this contributes to their global leading roles. Moreover, this also contributes to their constant improvement of quality of both, teaching and research.
From this perspective, I believe that the School of Global Leadership of Renmin University of China has the right potential.
Today, on this special occasion, I take the liberty to suggest three points that I hope that will be helpful for the future development of the Global Leadership Academy:
First, the need to have a global perspective. This school should have both Chinese and global characteristics. It should cultivate students' international perspectives and communication skills, invite students from all over the world, and have faculty from around the world.
Second, the need to look to the future. This school is committed to cultivating talents and seeking solutions to address the unprecedented challenges facing the world today. It must not only focus on the need to resolve political, economic, and other problems arising from the competition among major powers.
It must also contribute to finding solutions to non-traditional crises such as the consequences of climate change, the prevention of health emergencies and promotion of constructive use of artificial intelligence.
Third, we need to focus on innovation. I believe that this school is different from traditional colleges in that it needs to innovate in terms of talent cultivation and operational mechanism.
In conclusion, I would like to congratulate you on the establishment of the School of Global Leadership, Renmin University of China. I shall be happy to continue to contribute to the development of this school.
I wish the School of Global Leadership, Renmin University of China all success.
And I thank you for your attention.
