Questions

The King of Spain is president of the Instituto Cervantes, and the Prime Minister is its chief executive. How independent is the Institute? Who determines its policy and where it directs its resources? From which ministery does it receive its funding?

What are the objectives of the Institute's source of funds in terms of cultural diplomacy?

The Institute is supposed to be representative of all Spanish speaking countries but is clearly Madrid-centric. What role does the Institute have in Latin America?

And: what percentage of its GDP does Spain spend on culture?

Footnotes

The footnotes look funny, with some of them clickable in superscipt small, and others in standard font, non-clickable, but it looks too complicated to try and change them. Dodder0 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dodder0 (talk • contribs) 23:54, 30 January 2009 (UTC)

The Brussels Office budget and staff ?

Anybody? Brussels is the Capital of the EU. It would be interested to have an idea how much budget and staff they foresee to represent them at the EU institutions and have it compared to the budgets by other "International cultural organizations/Cultural promotion organizations" s.a. the Alliance Française, the Goethe Institut, the Instituto Cervantes, the Taalunie.

Premio de Poesía Instituto Cervantes

Should there be something here about an award that the Instituto (possibly) presents, the "Premio de Poesía Instituto Cervantes"? The article for Salvadoran poet and author Alfonso Quijada Urías says that he won this award in 2003. Is there more than one Instituto Cervantes? Jmg38 (talk) 07:39, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
