Where do you see Europe in the Basque Country?

How would you answer that question with a picture? I've been thinking about it, and the only thing that came to mind was the map the appears on money. It's there where I see Europe in the basque Country :)

Advertisment for voluntary work

Our teacher asked us to add a draft on the advertisment we are doing in a few days. Usue, Uxue, Paula and I have recorded it today. There are some other ads made by the other groups and at the end we will have to choose the best one. Let's see if that's ours :)

DO VOLUNTARY WORK

This is the poster we did. We still have to put the sloggan on it!

Poverty and exclution in Europe

Usue and I have made a presentation about the poverty and exclution in Europe due to the crisis. There are some interesting images and graphs for an easier understanding. Would you like to have a look? Here's the link.

Poverty and marginalization

3rd term

What are we going to learn about on the 3rd term?
Well, given that the crisis is a recent and a close subject, our teacher thought that it would be a good idea to learn about it. I was looking for information, and I found a really interesting place with news about the crisis to keep you up to date. Are you interested? Here is the link then!

Eurozone crisis

As we know, there are NGOs trying to stop the poverty not only in Europe, but all around the world. I've also found a page with different NGOs that help in different places. It's worth to have a look, so here's the link.

Carnival

Next weekend it is Carnival and thanks to that we've got three days of holiday. The second term has finished so that is going to be a good way to celebrate it. I love Carnival because I can see many different customes and it is really fun to meet other teenagers. My custome? I'm sorry but I can't tell you... It is a secret ;) Perhaps I'll add a picture of my friends and I in Carnival in the next post... Who knows?

Globalization explained (by explainity)

Any doubts about what globalization exactly is? Here you're an easy and clear expanation of it! :)

Have you ever helped an NGO?

On this term we've been finding information and getting an insight into some NGOs. Apart from that, our teacher asked us if we've ever helped any NGO. I've been thinking about it, and something came to mind although I'm not very sure if it was helping an NGO or not. The thing is that some years ago, due to the bad weather the beaches from Donostia, especially Zurriola,  got all dirty with plastic bags, branches, seaweeds and so on. Seeing that,  Patagonia the shop organised an event which consisted in cleaning the beach all together as a voluntary work. I thought it would be fun, I went there with some friends and we cleaned up the beach. Look at the video that comes next, we did a good job!
