- With the summer solstice we celebrated the 9th edition of the Bai Euskarari Awards. As usual, it is a special event for those of us who are part of the Bai Euskarari community. For our career or contribution to the promotion of the Basque language in socio-economic spaces, we have highlighted the large number of companies and people certified in Bai Euskarari in previous years.
JEZ (Laudio), IMH Institute (Elgoibar), Kirmen Uribe, Refractarios Kelsen (Aduna), Colegio Triukide (Tolosa), Soko (Hendaye), Xabier Mendiguren Bereziartu, Skunk Funk, Arlan (Erandio), Jose Anjel Iriic (Athletic), Leza, Bazar (Basque Institute of Pharmacy, Mirage, Mirage and Mirages) If I am Joba, Bazar, Bazar, the Foundation, Foundation
This year, under the pretext of the solstice, we wanted to celebrate the peculiar Basque acelarre around the fire. Regardless of the moments and experiences that have not been enriching, we want to take advantage of good lessons and enthusiastically address the challenges ahead. Together with each other. In collaboration with each other. Provoking each other. We want to help build a haunted environment dotted with complicity. We will also share fire, applause, magic pot, rituals... and a special potion that will strengthen and add value to the Basque community.
The Bai Euskarari Association has made many contributions over the years, Bai Euskarari is much more than a certification. We are working, creating and adapting projects, tools and resources that are gaining more and more impact and success to make them available to companies and professionals in the Basque Country: In the business area (fair, forums and TV), the work portal and application in Lansarea, adequate instructions, etc. We know that our contribution is helping to fill the spaces of the socio-economic field with Basque, and we want to continue doing so. With all of you, moving forward.
The Bai Euskarari Association has made many contributions over the years, Bai Euskarari is much more than a certification. We are working, creating and adapting projects, tools and resources that are becoming increasingly influential and successful to make them available to companies and professionals in the Basque Country.
The achievements are tangible and encourage us to move forward. Today we must highlight in particular the work, commitment, model and impact that more than 1,400 companies, businesses and all kinds of entities from all over the Basque Country are carrying out with Bai Euskarari Certification. Explicit recognition is important. They need it. We need him. These Bai Euskarari certified entities must be recognized, valued and recognized for the work they are doing, in the hiring of our suppliers, in the calls for administrations, etc. Together, we must add value to the work we are doing.
But we don't want to settle for this. We have to rethink what we want to do and how we want to influence the spaces of the socio-economic field to make the Basque language gain more space. All those who wish to receive services and products can do the work in Basque. Let's have a chance to live.
It is time to make the leap in the business world, in the socio-economic field in general. This will be partly answered by the process of the Basque strategic plan that the Basque Government is working on in the Basque Country for the socio-economic area and that will be launched soon, in collaboration with agents and agents in this area. This should help us to think and build the future. Bai Euskarari also wants to make its contribution by sharing our experience and trajectory, seeking complementarity and, sooner rather than later, implementing the necessary decisions, measures, and resources. We are convinced that the sharing of experiences, the facilitation of complementarity, mutual recognition and project approval can multiply success and increase and consolidate the effectiveness of achievements.
For the special potion we have to collect and mix these ingredients together. The challenge is to invent the right combination.
