We, too, want to decide
Congratulations to the Durangarras who have had the opportunity to express their opinion on an inherited urban megaproject in urban matters. Not a few people have been encouraged to participate in the organised consultation, given the policy that some political parties are pursuing against the direct participation of citizens. We are aware that the outcome of the consultation is not decisive in its entirety, as it is up to the institutions to take on this task, but it is certainly a significant example when we talk about citizen participation. The process that has taken place in Durango allows it to be carried out in other countries and, in the not too distant future, it should be applied as soon as possible in cases of controversy and controversy.
"[Errenteria] The reason why green areas are destroyed is the legacy of the previous government, the General Plan approved almost 20 years ago. This plan was carried out without the participation of the citizens"
In Orereta the situation is not good. In recent years, we have lost more and more natural green areas under cement. Currently, projects are being carried out that will destroy two natural green areas; another is intended to be installed in the area of a marsh where the warehouses of CAMPSA were located, although the City Hall itself acknowledges in its reports that it can flood. In addition, in the Pontika neighborhood they have been waiting for about 30 years for a park, the City Hall has committed to this, although it has not yet been done, since in the neighborhood a car parking will be installed. If these projects are carried out, as well as losing natural spaces, our people will become increasingly drowned and pollution of all kinds will increase.
Orereta also governs the parties that rule Durango. Unfortunately, however, for the Orerese, the road to consultation is closed, because the Government has said that it has shielded these projects, although urban nature parks have been proposed as an alternative. The cause of the destruction of the green areas is the legacy of the previous government, the General Plan adopted almost 20 years ago. This plan was carried out without the participation of the public and the implementation period ended in 2012; it has been nine years since the law established that it should be renewed, but they have not wanted it.
From here we want to make it clear that we too want to participate in and decide on the development of our people. It is not worth saying that they are different situations, because at the end of the day it is a question of will, to give the word to real citizenship among the options to see what we prefer. If it has been done in Durango, why not in Orereta?

Just as we experienced the flourishing of the Basque Country with the help of the artists, so that this time, taking advantage of their impulses, we continue to make our way together giving the necessary support to the Basque political prisoners, exiles and deportees

Epistemology, or theory of knowledge, is one of the main areas of philosophy, and throughout history there have been important debates about the limits and bases of our knowledge. Within this we find two powerful corridors that propose different ways of accessing knowledge: The... [+]
We learned this week that the Court of Getxo has closed the case of 4-year-old children from the Europa School. This leads us to ask: are the judicial, police, etc. authorities prepared to respond to the children’s requests? Are our children really protected when they are... [+]
Gure lurraldeetan eta bizitzetan sortzen diren behar, desio eta ekimenen inguruan gero eta gehiago entzuten dugu harreman eta proiektu publiko-komunitarioak landu beharraz, eta pozgarria da benetan, merkaturik gabeko gizarte antolaketarako ezinbesteko eredua baita. Baina... [+]
We have renewed the dialogue in the secretariat of the faculty, for the most auspicious: they are far away, for their enrollment, the times when only the students came. The trend has changed for a long time, and parents – most notably mothers – are taking an increasingly... [+]
The argument of a syllogism has three propositions, the last of which is necessarily deduced from the other two. It is with this deductive logic that I can analyze, for me, the long and traumatic socioecological conflict in Carpinteria that is taking place in Navarre.

I don't want my daughter disguising herself as a Gypsy in the caldereros. I don’t want Gypsy children at my daughter’s school to dress up as Gypsies in caldereros. Because being a gypsy is not a disguise. Because being a gypsy is not a party that takes place once a year, with... [+]
The road goes by steps, and I learned a little while ago that it seems to have already begun. But people also want to learn to fill that sentence with content. Alone we could achieve little, maybe even resignation as soon as we started. Gathering huge crowds can also complicate... [+]
