The Council calls in the Navarre Parliament for 'effective steps' to ensure that adults are Euskaldunized for free
At a working session in the Navarre Parliament, the Council of the Basque Culture has called for 'effective steps' to ensure that the process of adult Euskaldunization is completely free of charge. The organization advocates promoting a 'mass Euskaldunization and literacy' ofadults, considering it essential to increase the use of the language.
Aize Otaño and Joserra Olano have presented the document 'Proposal to promote the need to know the Basque language in adults', which they have worked with the adult Euskaldunization and literacy sector.
Aize Otaño has stressed that the Euskaldunization and literacy of adults must be "the centrepiece of the process of Euskaldunization of the people", with the aim of "making the Euskera prevail throughout Euskal Herria, in all areas of life".
For, in his words, the knowledge of adults will result, among other things, in "a significant increase in the use of the Basque language, an increase in Euskaltzalism and knowledge of Basque culture, an increase in the consumption of requested cultural products, a neutralization of attitudes towards the Basque language and a facilitation of the development of appropriate language policies".
The Council considers it very important that the majority of the population have the "appropriate competence" of the language and considers it necessary to "create, develop and interact areas for the comfortable use of the Basque language".
In this regard, several proposals have been put forward for adults to learn Basque, including the recognition of the right to learn Basque during working hours or the application of linguistic criteria.
But they have placed particular emphasis on the free nature of this learning process and have called for "effective steps" to be taken to ensure, among other things, that free of charge is linked to the presence of the Basque language, as well as promoting the "need to know the Basque language".
At its hearing in the Navarre Parliament, the Council has also called for a 'coordinated, unified and unique language policy' for the whole of the Basque Country, proposing the creation of a 'stable structure' for the whole territory, an agency.
