New direction in Bertsozale Elkartea
Aritz Zerain Miner announced in March that he was going to quit his post as coordinator at the association Bertsozale Elkartea. In order to improve the management of the association whose project is getting bigger and bigger the last recent years and to meet the needs of bertsolaritza movement in the best possible way, the board of management has opted for a coordination composed of two people.
Therefore, Idoia Trenor Zulaika and Jon Agirresarobe Lopetegi "Torrotxo" will be from now onwards the general coordinators of Bertsozale Elkartea.
Trenor has a Degree in History of Arts as well as the Expert Degree in Basque culture transmission issued by HUHEZI (the University of Mondragon). She has been member of several associations ralated to Basque culture and feminist movement.
Agirresarobe has a Degree in Humanities and Communication, and he has worked, among others, in Euskadi Irratia. Subsequently, he has also completed the postgraduate degree in Basque culture transmission and he is currently carrying out the master’s degree in Culture Management. He has worked the last decade in Bertsozale Elkartea as head of the promotion area.
This step forward follows the transition made last year, when the model of presidency and its representatives were changed. The association is reinforced and motivated to face future.
