This award is named after Professor María Oianguren in tribute to all the women who have promoted the use of Basque in Bergara. María Oianguren was a teacher (“andereño”) at the first ikastola in Bergara between 1933 and 1936 and her work influenced the creation of the first Basque language classes during the Franco regime. Also previously, Bergara has been a pioneer and, according to many, exemplary in the Basque Country, promoting and channeling research and publications on the people and their language. The Bergara City Council has decided to continue on this path and publish a call every two years to promote research projects and the end of a master's degree in Basque in Bergara. OBJECT 1- OBJECT The research award aims to promote research and master's degree projects on Basque in Bergara. That is, the topic of study will be Basque in Bergara, but it can be approached from any point of view and from any area of ​​knowledge (linguistics, sociolinguistics, history, sociology, anthropology, ethnography, literature, journalism...). In the 2024 call, projects that deal with the social history of Basque in Bergara between 1876 and 1940 will be prioritized, but other topics will be admitted and valued in the call, as long as the topic under study is Basque in Bergara. In particular, the aim is to attract young people and researchers who plan to begin a longer career in university studies on this research topic, so master's thesis projects will be prioritized, in order to support subsequent theses, but other monographic study projects may be presented. In any case, the project must be endorsed by a doctoral university professor, in case the candidate herself is not one. 2- OWNERSHIP OF THE RESEARCH WORK Bergara City Council reserves the right to publish, reproduce and disseminate the research in whole and/or partially (on paper, digitally...) for five years.
