With respect, he explained that this year around 2,000 young people from the province of Ourense will be able to benefit from the program.

To apply for the bonus, explained Santos, you only have to register on the website bonoculturaljoven.gob.es before October 31 . To do this, it is necessary to have a means of digital identification: Digital Certificate or the Cl@ve. "It's a simple process, but it's important to do it within the deadline so we don't get left out," he said. For one year from the date of the concession they will be able to make use of the voucher in the establishments adhered, 3,700 throughout Spain.
