Oportunidades de educación

No podemos esperar al próximo episodio de GPL para compartir esta información sobre oportunidades educativas con ustedes. Bueno el año  va volando y las fechas límites se van cumpliendo. Se trata de dos oportunidades de educación, una en Alemania para un taller sobre y la otra para estudios de doctorado en la Universidad de Manchester. Como se requieren candidatos con amplio conocimiento del  inglés pues aquí copio la información directamente tal y como llego.
