RT Book, Section T1 The BerbaTek project for Basque: Promoting a less-resourced language via language technology for translation, content management and learning A1 Leturia, Igor A1 Sarasola, Kepa A1 Arregi, Xabier A1 de Ilarraza, Arantza Diaz A1 Navas, Eva A1 Sainz, Iñaki A1 del Pozo, Arantza A1 Baranda, David A1 Iturraspe, Urtza AB Basque is both a minority language (only a small proportion of the population of the Basque Country speaks it) and also a less-resourced language. Fortunately, the Basque regional government is committed to its recovery, and has adopted policies for funding, among other things, language technologies, a field which a language aiming to survive cannot dispense with. BerbaTek was a 3-year (2009-2011) strategic research project on language, speech and multimedia technologies for Basque carried out by a consortium of five members, all prominent local organizations dedicated to research in the above-mentioned areas, and partially funded by the Departments for Industry and Culture of the Basque Government. Collaboration in BerbaTek allowed to carry out a great amount of both basic and applied research. In addition, various prototypes were developed to show the potential of integrating the developed technologies to the language industry sector.
