The Jendaurrean Erabili project has developed ways and means to facilitate the action of organizations and agents that wish to make more, better or more effective use of the Basque language in public communication. The project has been articulated around the Community of Practice launched in 2015. It has brought together social, private and public organizations of different nature and areas to share experiences and learn from each other about communication in Basque.
