Elbira Zipitria, the principal promoter of ikastolas dies during Franco

Elbira Zipitria dies in San Sebastian. During Franco he was the principal promoter of the ikastolas entirely in Basque, although it is well known that this was prohibited. I worked with progressive pedagogies. He welcomed in his house small groups of children. He was an entrepreneur who had to train more teachers. The feminist discourse that launched thousands of people before the war has been documented.

In the upper part of 1968, when opening a site of ikastola Orixe, Elvira Zipitria found menacing messages on the slates and Miss BegoƱa Goya, who practiced at the time. (Andoni Zinkunegi)
