The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation has launched the 18th edition of the Carlos V European Award with the aim of recognising individuals, organisations, projects, or initiatives that have contributed to the broader understanding and promotion of Europe’s cultural, social, scientific, and historical values, or to the unification of the European Union. This award includes an economic endowment of €30,000.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation has opened the call for applications for 18 Carlos V European Award – Angela Merkel European Research and Mobility Grants for European Studies. Each grant is valued at €2,500, with a total allocation of €45,000 for this call.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation opened the call for applications for the Research Prize to Ibero-American Doctoral Theses, aimed at supporting the development of research work while promoting reflection and the exchange of ideas among university researchers and professionals on Ibero-American and European topics.

The Regional Government of Extremadura and the board of trustees and staff of the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation express their deepest condolences on the passing, at the age of 90, of Federico Mayor Zaragoza, former minister of Education and Science and former director-general of UNESCO. Mayor Zaragoza was also a member of the Academy of Yuste since 2008, when he was inducted into the Leonardo Da Vinci chair during the ceremony to deliver the Carlos V European Award to French lawyer and politician Simone Veil.
