Canary Islands government extends partnership with César Manrique Foundation

Summary

The Canary Islands government has officially renewed its partnership with the César Manrique Foundation, extending their collaboration until 2029.

Originally signed in 2021 to promote educational programs and raise awareness about the life and work of iconic artist César Manrique, the agreement had been set to conclude in 2025. Now, both parties have agreed to a formal extension, acknowledging the successful outcomes achieved over recent years.

This renewal also involves a change in the name of the agreement to reflect the reorganized government structure. Since the previous department overseeing education, culture, and sports was restructured into a new entity, all references in the document now refer to the 'Consejería de Educación, Formación Profesional, Actividad Física y Deportes.'

Reasons for Extension

• The decision to prolong this cooperation underscores its value.
• It highlights the positive impact of joint initiatives so far.

Goals and Benefits

• Deepening educational and cultural exchanges.
• Enriching both local communities and visitors.
• Ongoing support for programs that promote Canary Islands culture through César Manrique’s legacy.
• Aligning with regional efforts to foster cultural promotion and civic pride.

Overall Impact

The extension ensures continued collaboration to promote culture and education, celebrating César Manrique's legacy and strengthening regional identity.
