In 2019, professor Jon Franco had the idea of organizing a scientific gathering about Basque linguistics, which could allow experts in the field share their work. The participants would have a common thread of having studied at the University of Deusto, even if they worked at other international academic institutions afterwards (especially North American universities). Of course, the workshop would also be open to other interested people, no matter their academic origin.
The Institute for Basque Studies at the UD embraced this idea with enthusiasm, and collaborated with Jon in all the material aspects of the project. Thus, the UD Workshop 2019 on Basque Linguistics was born. The success of the call gave rise to the following UD Workshop 2020 on Basque Linguistics, which happened to be conditioned by the pandemic.
The Institute at the UD, and the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities itself, are determined to keep the drive of professor Franco and to organize this 2021 workshop, as well as those to come in the future...
