The Board of Trustees and the staff of the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation mourn the passing of the Portuguese historian Manuela Mendonça, a member of the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste, who took up the Joan of Arc Chair during the ceremony for the awarding of the Carlos V European Award to the French politician Simone Veil in 2008 at the Monastery of San Jerónimo de Yuste.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation has organised the Carlos V European Award Doctoral Seminar of Multidisciplinary Studies on Contemporary Europe – European Disability Forum entitled “United in Diversity: The Impact of the European Union on the Lives of People with Disabilities”. The seminar will bring together ten researchers from Spain and Colombia, as well as experts from Germany, Belgium, Spain, France, and Serbia, from 16 to 18 December at the Royal Monastery of Santa María de Guadalupe in Spain.
