Additional information

I have a degree in Biology from the University of the Basque Country. I am currently a teacher of Vocational Training in the Basque Public Education network in the Easo Polytechnic, teacher in the higher cycle of Education and Environmental Control. I participate in various initiatives for the revitalisation of sustainability and language, as a collaborator in projects or as a teacher facilitator in training sessions, and I am a teacher in expert courses on language revitalisation organised by the UNESCO Chair on Sustainable Development and Environmental Education of the UPV/EHU, in my own master's degree in Sustainable Environment and SDGs or in the Garabide association.

From 1997 to the present day I have participated in different cooperation projects with indigenous peoples, among others, in Colombia with the Garabide Association. I am also a member of the UNESCO Chair of World Linguistic Heritage (UPV/EHU).
