Teaching English From a Culturally and Linguistically Sustaining Approach: Insights From the Basque Autonomous Community
Abstract
This chapter explores the transformative potential of culturally and linguistically sustaining pedagogies in the multilingual context of the Basque Autonomous Community (BAC). The authors discuss how English as a Lingua Franca should become central in Basque schools, influenced by globalization and new educational policies. The authors delve into the integration of culturally sustaining pedagogies (CSP) and Translanguaging in English education, highlighting their effectiveness in enhancing students' linguistic and cultural competencies. The authors review the most relevant literature on the topics and ground the current and future research on these studies. Finally, the authors address the challenges and opportunities of multilingual education in the BAC, emphasizing the importance of English as an equalizing language learning space in this diverse linguistic setting. Thus, we set the stage for future research directions in CSP and Translanguaging in the Basque context, aiming to foster inclusive and equitable English language education that respects and leverages students' diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds.
