The Italian educator Sofia Corradi, better known as “Mamma Erasmus” and awarded the Carlos V European Award in 2016, has passed away at the age of 91 in Rome. Corradi studied at the Columbia Graduate School of Law, earning a Master in Comparative Law. She graduated with honours in Law from the University of Rome La Sapienza and conducted research on the right to education as a fundamental human right at the UN Human Rights Commission, the Hague Academy of International Law, and the London School of Economics.

Over 40 participants, mostly women, from different sectors across the region of La Vera (Cáceres, Extremadura) met on 2 and 3 October at the Monastery of San Jerónimo de Yuste and in Pasarón de la Vera for the activity “Not Letting None Behind: The Challenge of Rural Areas”, framed within the European project funded by the Citizens, Equality, Rights and Values Programme (CERV), “Her Voice: Her Power, Our Future! Women Leading the Way to Sustainability”, in which representatives from municipalities, institutions and universities from Slovenia, France, Italy, Romania, Poland, Latvia and Spain also took part.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation and the Spanish Economic and Social Council (CES) signed a framework cooperation agreement today in Madrid aimed at promoting joint activities in the academic, scientific, cultural and research fields.
