Munduenea – Munduko ipuinen etxea – Worldwide house of stories is a collection of short stories from around the world, Munduenea ultimately symbolizing a home for all peoples.

We welcome you all at Munduenea to celebrate our differences. Assorted stories are here bound together by the guiding thread of an inclusive culture.

The ability for mutual understanding across all types of cultural barriers is a fundamental prerequisite for making diverse societies work; in this sense, the present selection of children’s books highlights major ethnic minorities in the Basque Country today.

The promotion and safeguarding of intercultural dialogue are at the core of this publication, a warm invitation to explore and learn about us, for our home is your home.

The collection features multilingual storytelling, accompanied by custom illustrations and complete audio recordings.

Along with Basque, ten other languages have been used in the storybooks: Arabic (Algeria), Romanian, French (France), Galician, Catalan, Portuguese (Brazil), Chinese, Urdu (Pakistan), Wolof (Senegal) and Yoruba (Nigeria).

By embracing multiculturalism and fostering inclusion, important life lessons are interwoven through child-friendly narratives and colourful illustrations.
