The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation presents the book Hernán Cortés en el siglo XXI. V centenario de la llegada de Cortés a México tomorrow in Medellin. It gathers all the conferences and presentations that took place in the Extremaduran localities of Medellín and Trujillo in April 2019 at the international congress that bears the same name.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation and the Iberian Film Festival of Badajoz invite young residents of Extremadura, aged between 18 and 30, to be part of the Young Jury, that will be in charge of awarding the Luis Alcoriza Award of the Iberian Film Festival, which celebrates its 27th edition in Badajoz, Olivenza and San Vicente de Alcántara from 20 to 24 July.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation opens the application period to apply for 800 grants to finance tuition fees, as well as – in the case of the face-to-face modality – the accommodation and maintenance for the international courses of the Campus Yuste programme, which will be held between June and October 2021 and are included in the XXII edition of the University of Extremadura’s International Summer-Autumn Courses.

Sara Durán Vázquez, Director-General of the Youth Institute of Extremadura, defended the role of young people in building the future of Europe because European youth “wants to have the leading role in such an important process, we want our future to lie in our hands, not in the hands of others”. This was expressed during the opening of the webinar “Youth and the Future of Europe”, organised by Yuste Foundation as part of the cycle of meetings “Guadalupe Destino”.
