  • The ELB, Lurzaindia and Ostia extend their call for the protection of the lands of Cambo (Lapurdi). On the 17th of May, a walk, an event and a popular plantation are organized."The present and future of the territory depends on our involvement," they say.

The three agents recall that since 2014 there is a project in the Marienea lands to build a group of houses that "boast the margins" and denounce that the purpose of the project is "to save power and profits". Although the political group of the neighborhood says that "there is a shortage of housing and a need for housing", they assure that there are "exits" in the center of the town to make them. Instead, they argue that Mariene’s land can provide “witness” and “quality” benefits, cultivated “with respect for the environment” and “in contact with consumers.” All this has led them to insist that they are ready to face the project of the multinational immobilier Boygues: "Police arrests, prosecutions and fines will not stop this goal."

On May 17, the ELB, Lurzaindia and Ostia have organized a planting day with the intention of creating a garden in Mariena. The whole day's program has been curated. At 11:00 hours there will be walks to Marien from the houses of Cambo and Itsasu (Lapurdi). At 12:00 p.m. there will be an oath of the sticks and a political act, followed by lunch together. From 14:00 the popular plantation will begin and it is recommended to bring potatoes, pumpkins or peppers.
