“We want to bring together the Euskaldunes of the Region of Pamplona, the students and the Euskaltzales, so that they interact and exchange opinions in a pleasant environment,” the organization explains.
“In the two previous Mintzodromes we have had everything: adults, … in this sense it has seemed very enriching,” explains Ainhoa Madariaga, director of the Euskaltegi Zubiarte, “The goal has always been to unite different people, to take the Euskera out of the Euskaltegis and the result has been very nice and enriching.” “A familiar atmosphere has always emerged,” added Marta Molinero, from AEK, “students were even more afraid but it was very enriching for everyone. They were given the opportunity to relate in Basque with students from other courses and with other Euskaldunes”.
The Mintzodromo will take place on the afternoon of April 24 in the old bus station of Pamplona, the Station. The same dynamic will be repeated as in previous editions: On the table there will be three themes, groups will be formed from four to five people for 20 minutes to talk about one of them; after that time they will mix the groups again and each will return to a new theme. As in the last edition, members and personalities from the Basque culture of Navarra will also participate, culminating in sweepstakes. The working session will be conducted and presented by Reyes Ilintxeta of Euskalerria Irratia.
The registration period shall be open until 19 April.
