Kultura sortu eta zabaldu

Kulturak biririk iraun dezan, belaunaldiz belaunadi igorri behar da. Hau bideratzeko modurik topatu ezean, kultura sakabanatu eta desagertu egingo da. “Gurea” izeneko Euskal kultura alfabetatze proiektuaren helburua da euskaltasuna (euskal kultura eta nortasuna) garatzeko eta handitzeko bide eragingarriak sortzea. “Ez daukazunetik ezin duzu eman”. Gutako askok gazteei euskalduntasuna (euskal kultura eta nortasuna) eman nahi diegu daukaguna eta inportantetzat jotzen duguna haiekin banatu nahi dugulako. Gurea da euskal kulturari lotzen gaituena. Arazoa da gutako askok (mesedez ez hartu hau pertsonalki) ez daukagula euskal kulturaren ezagutza sakonik. Hauxe da arazoa eta konponbidea: Gehiago ikasi behar dugu irakatsi ahal izateko. Euskal kultur alfabetatze proiektu honekin konprometitzen bagara, aukera handiagoa egongo da euskal kulturak irauteko eta baita loratzeko ere. Birsortu + Hezitu = Betikotu Euskal kulturari eusteko erronkarik handiena da gutariko gehienok euskal kulturaz eta nortasunaz ezagutza murriztua daukagula. Arrazoi batzuk daude egoera hau azaltzeko. Haien arteko bat da etorkin askoren ezagutza euskal kulturaz eta nortasunaz 30 kmtara murrizten dela. Garai hartan bizitza horrelakoa zelako. Halere, nahiz eta gaur egun askoz ere errazagoa izan bidaiatzea eta Euskal Herria ezagutzea, tourretan lortzen den ezagutza ere murriztua da.

The GUREA ("It's Ours") Basque Cultural Literacy Project is aimed at developing and implementing some effective methods to sustain "Basqueness:" Basque culture and identity. "You cannot give what you do not have."  Many of us want to give to younger generations a sense of Basqueness (Basque culture & identity) because we want to share what we have and what we have appreciated.  What we have in relation to Basque culture we'll refer to as GUREA: "That which is ours."  The problem--and don't take this personal--is that many of us don't have much depth or breadth of knowledge about Basqueness.  This is the proposed definition of the problem and solution: we have to learn (ikasi) more to be able to teach (irakatsi) more.  If we commit ourselves to this Basque Cultural Literacy Project, we stand a better chance of seeing Basqueness not only endure but flourish.  Recreate + Educate = Perpetuate One of the challenges that confronts those who wish to see Basqueness endure is the fact of the matter that most have only a limited understanding of Basque culture and identity.  There are various reasons for this, including the fact that for many immigrant Basques, their initial understanding of the Basque Country was generally limited to only an area of about twenty miles from their birthplace.  This was just the way life was at that time.  Meanwhile while today its much easier to travel greater distances and to see many parts of the Basque Country, oftentimes on the tour-package plan the knowledge we get still remains limited.   Send your comments to info@nabasque.org Orohar, hiru azalek sortzen dute kultura: 1.Pentsamendua: hizkuntza, sinboloak eta tresnak 2. Portaera: Ohiturak, jardunak eta nazioarteko ereduak 3. Baloreak: Balore komunak, arauak, sinesmenak eta itxaropenak.   In general, culture is made up of three distinct yet integrated layers:  THINKING:  language, symbols & artifacts  BEHAVING: customs, practices & interactional patterns  VALUING: shared values, norms, beliefs & expectations Recreate + Educate = Perpetuate
