HABE is the acronym for Helduen Alfabetatze Berreuskalduntzerako Erakundea.  It is a department within the Basque Government of Euskadi that is dedicated to the teaching of the Basque language to those who have lost it or to those whose ancestors never spoke it, and to the teaching of educated Basque to those who grew up speaking the language but never learned to read or write in it.  This department has been a great help to us (N.A.B.O.) in our endeavor to launch multiple efforts to teach the language. 

The are many resources that HABE has made available on their website.  Click on:
