The president of the Cabildo, Casimiro Curbelo, highlighted that these grants are specifically aimed at students participating in these mobility programs and increase the financial support for Gomera students pursuing higher education in institutions covered by these schemes.
The aid includes a monthly contribution of 300 euros for a maximum of nine months, meaning a total amount of up to 2,700 euros per student. The total investment by the island institution for this call amounts to 31,800 euros.
Furthermore, Curbelo recalled that the institution is already working on the next call for study grants and rental assistance, which is scheduled to open before the end of the year, following the usual planning.
The Cabildo de La Gomera has set a total investment exceeding 2 million euros for Education, broken down into 1.2 million euros for general scholarships, 80,000 euros for Erasmus, 400,000 euros for transport assistance, 200,000 euros for the purchase of textbooks in compulsory education, and 126,000 euros for agreements with public universities in the Canary Islands.
