Thanks to the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation (MAUC), through the Diplomatic School, we have been able to award 4 Scholarships to prepare the Opposition to Join the Diplomatic Corps, for the 2021-2022 academic year.

The awarding committee of scholarships met on May 21 to comply with the call, in order to deliberate the elected candidates for the 4 scholarships published on February 3, 2021.

This awarding committee was made up of the CEI Academic Director, Dr. Helena Torroja; a collaborating diplomat of the CEI, Mr. Marc Sánchez; a member of the CEI Advisory Council and the secretary of the CEI Board of Trustees, the latter who acts as secretary of the Commission, without the right to vote, Mr. Joaquim Llimona, who holds both positions. They were also supported by the secretary of the commission, Mrs. Eugènia Guarro Borrell.

The 11 applicants who submitted to the call had to comply with the established bases and also have passed the entrance exam to the Preparation to Join the Diplomatic Corps at the CEI.

The total amount allocated by the MAUC and the Diplomatic School to this call is 16,500 euros and has allowed to resolve by awarding 4 scholarships to students. The amount of the scholarship for each student is equivalent to the cost of tuition for one year of the Preparation to Join the Diplomatic Corps course. 

This is just the first step on an important journey, we wish we had contributed to your future careers as diplomats!
