The acting director general of External Action of the Regional Government of Extremadura and president of Yuste Foundation’s Executive Committee, Rosa Balas, opened the course “EU-Latin America and the Caribbean Relations in the Framework of the Presidencies of the Council of the U.E and the EU-CELAC and Iberoamerican Summits”, to be held until Thursday at the Monastery of San Jerónimo de Yuste.

From 27 to 29 June, Campus Yuste will become a forum for analysis, debate and knowledge transfer on relations between the European Union and Latin America under the perspective of the presidencies of the Council of the European Union, at a time when Spain is assuming that presidency. This circumstance presents an opportunity to strengthen relations between the two regions, taking the existing strong historical, political, cultural, economic and social relations between the country and the Ibero-American region into account.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation offers 60 grants for the courses organised by the University of Extremadura that are included within the 10th International Virtual School CAVILA of the Association of Latin American Universities (AULA).

The board of trustees and the staff of the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation regret the death of the 97-year-old French sociologist Alain Touraine, member of the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste. Touraine assumed the Antonio Lucio Vivaldi Chair of the Academy during the award ceremony of the Carlos V European Award to Jorge Fernando Branco de Sampaio in 2004.
