UDALBILTZA ®: Udalbiltza ®

UDALBILTZA® is the Board of Municipalities and Municipally-elected Councillors from Euskal Herria

This is a municipal-based institution which brings together municipally-elected councillors from Araba, Bizkaia, Gipuzkoa, Lapurdi, Nafarroa Behera, Nafarroa Garaia and Zuberoa. Its purpose is to promote the integral and balanced development of Euskal Herria within the framework of the European Union, beyond current political-administrative borders and divisions. It seeks, in collaboration with territorial socio-economic institutions and agents, to promote Euskera, culture and sports, and the organization of territory and economic and social development of all the territories of Euskal Herria - in short, to establish the conditions whereby we Basques from all territories may get to know each other and work together in an increasingly interrelated and closer-knit Europe and world.

Activities carried out and declarations made by UDALBILTZA® focus on totally democratic principles. It rejects any act of violence for political gain. It does not accept freedom imposed by violence, nor mandatory immovable frameworks. The central point of its attitude and activity is sustained by the free will of the citizens of Euskal Herria. For this reason, we wish to see an Euskal Herria which is more untied socially and more structured as a nation among the peoples of Europe.

National construction from the integrating point of view, based on respect for people and territories.
