The acting president of the Regional Government of Extremadura, María Guardiola, has announced that the 19th edition of the Carlos V European Award, granted by Yuste Foundation, has been awarded to the European Committee of the Regions, an institution of the European Union which, for more than three decades, has structurally ensured the active participation of territories and citizens in the construction of the European project.

Yuste Foundation, together with the Economic and Social Council of Spain (CES), has organised the seminar “The European Union in the New Global Context: Improving Competitiveness by Advancing the Social Model”, which will take place today and tomorrow at the Royal Monastery of Santa María de Guadalupe, with the participation of around 80 CES members, a body composed of trade union organisations, the business sector, and experts appointed by the government.

The doctoral thesis El Ministerio de Ultramar (1836-1899), by Dr. Elisa Díaz Álvarez, has been awarded the 10th Research Prize to Ibero-American Doctoral Theses organised by the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation, the University of Extremadura (UEx), and the Ibero-American Research Centre of the Rey Juan Carlos University (CEIB-URJC) have organised the 9th International Congress on Relations between Latin America, the Caribbean and Europe, which this year is entitled “The Role of Latin America and Europe in a World at War”. The session will take place on 25 March in the Sala Capitular of the Royal Monastery of Santa María de Guadalupe.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation has taken part in the specialised training course in International Development Cooperation held last weekend at the International Sports Innovation Centre in Natural Environments “El Anillo”, located in Guijo de Granadilla, with the participation of more than twenty young people from Extremadura.
