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.

For
a culture to survive it must be transmitted from generation to
generation. If effective means of doing this are not found,
then a culture dissipates and soon disappears. 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.

NABO's
"Gurea
Entertainment"
and
"Gurea Educational"
are efforts to address the needs of clubs just like yours. We are
fortunate to count on the support of the Basque Government to pay for
the flights which is always the biggest hurdle. With their ongoing
support, we hope to continue these annual programs: entertainment and
educational.
The tours rotate because we
try to keep this moving around to try and touch as many communities as
we can based on 1) the time that our guests have to travel here and 2)
the number of clubs that step up and host. So while it might not be
possible to have something every year, perhaps every other year we can
help to arrange something for member organizations somewhere nearby, because that's the purpose of NABO:
to help clubs help themselves to keep Basqueness alive.
