1. Volunteers will point communications with signs and stickers of "eta hau ez zergatik euskaraz?". Then will be shared via Twitter and Instagram (indicating location and name of the comerce) or on the website (http: //euskaraz.365egun. EUS)
2. All pictures on the website.
3. Letters will be sent from the "Euskaltzaleen Elkartea" calling for the use of Euskara in the inscriptions and communications; offering help and advice.
4. Creating a report for Hizkuntza Eskubideen Behatokia and Elebide
