The aims of Etxerat are to achieve an end to the policy of dispersion of prisoners used by the French and Spanish Governments, to assist and support family members of Basque nationalist prisoners and exiles, and to bring to public attention the conditions in which those prisoners and exiles live.
Ciljevi Etxerata su prekinuti politiku disperzije zatvorenika što koriste francuske i španjolske vlasti, pomagati članove obitelji baskijskih nacionalista zatvorenika i prognanika, i privlačiti pozornost javnosti na uvjete u kojima ti zarobljenici i prognanici žive.
