The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation and the Pontifical Catholic University of Puerto Rico (PUCPR) have organised the academic forum “European Integration and its Social Model of Freedoms”, where European community-building and civic participation are analysed from the perspective of European social thought.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation and the Ministry of Defence inaugurated the 2nd Security and Defence Sessions on the Ibero-American Space this Wednesday with the aim of analysing various aspects at a time when geopolitics and geostrategy are being redefined and significant challenges are emerging. These include the role of the Armed Forces in Ibero-America in supporting the control of irregular immigration, the relationships between organised crime and the State in Ibero-America, and the fight against drug trafficking in the Ibero-American space.

Once again, the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation has organised a new series of “Emperor’s Music” concerts along with the Patrimonio Nacional. They will be held this Saturday, 21st September, and the following Saturday, 28th September, both at 13:00 pm.

Topics to be discussed include the role of the Armed Forces in managing irregular immigration, the relationship between organised crime and the State in Ibero-America, and the fight against drug trafficking in the Ibero-American space.

Close to 600 students from 22 countries have enrolled in the training programme Campus Yuste, which is organised by the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation, as part of the 25th International Summer/Autumn Courses of the University of Extremadura. Of the 578 registered individuals, 218 participated either in person or online.

The regional minister for Presidency, Interior, and Social Dialogue, Abel Bautista, closed the course “European Union – Latin America and the Caribbean Relations: New Times and Renewed Commitments” this Thursday.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation aims to contribute to the promotion and consolidation of existing ties between Extremadura, Europe, and Ibero-America. In line with this goal, the Foundation organised the course “European Union-Latin America and the Caribbean Relations: New Times and Renewed Commitments” along with the EU-LAC Foundation in order to analyse “how to strengthen relations between these two regions to promote multilateralism and combat the challenges that constantly threaten us, with the aim of strengthening our democracies and creating certainties”. This was stated by Pablo Hurtado Pardo, director general of External Action of the Regional Government of Extremadura and member of Yuste Foundation’s board of trustees, during the course’s inauguration.

The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation and the Fernando Valhondo Calaff Foundation have renewed their collaboration commitment through an agreement that will serve to update the academic objectives and social and cultural synergies that they have already been developing together in the region.

Aiming to analyse the implementation of strategies that contribute to the construction of peaceful, supportive, and egalitarian societies, and to promote the creation of alliances that can address the current levels of uncertainty facing Europe and Ibero-America, the European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundation, along with the EU-LAC Foundation, organised the course “European Union-Latin America and the Caribbean Relations: New Times and Renewed Commitments” to be held from the 23rd to the 25th July at the Monastery of San Jerónimo de Yuste. This course concludes the Campus Yuste training programme framed within the 25th International Summer/Autumn Courses of the University of Extremadura.
