The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation held the 15th Carlos V European Award ceremony this Wednesday at the Royal Monastery of Yuste. In this edition, the prize has been awarded to the European Disability Forum (EDF) and the ceremony was presided over by H.M. the King of Spain, Felipe VI. This award recognises the promotion of a more inclusive, just and egalitarian Europe and contributes to the process of European integration by defending the values of the European Union on an equal footing and without discrimination.

His Majesty King Felipe VI, Honorary President of Yuste Foundation, presided over the Foundation’s Board of Trustees’ extraordinary meeting on Wednesday, 11 May, at 16:00h, at the Monastery of Yuste, on the occasion of the institution’s 30th anniversary.

The Board of Trustees, the Academy and the staff of the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation regret the death of the German researcher and politician Ursula Lehr, who took office as a member of the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste in 2000, occupying the Marie Curie Chair.

In this edition, the award has been granted to the European Disability Forum and its president, the Greek Yannis Vardakastanis, will be in charge of collecting it.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation and the Elcano Royal Institute have signed a general protocol of action that aims to articulate the framework of collaboration between the two institutions for the realisation of teaching, research, and cooperation activities, and those of any other area of mutual interest, which will be regularised with the signing of subsequent specific agreements.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation opens the application period to qualify for 260 grants that will finance the tuition, accommodation and maintenance expenses incurred by the courses included in the Campus Yuste training programme. The courses are held within the framework of the 23rd edition of the University of Extremadura’s international summer-autumn courses. The training sessions will be held between June and September at the Monastery of Yuste (Cáceres), in Guadalupe and online.
