The Ambassador of Monaco to France, H.E. Mr. Claude Cottalorda, attended the 56th Prize Awards Ceremony of the Marcel Bleustein-Blanchet Foundation for Vocation on Monday 30 November 2015.

Every year, this Foundation, which is presided over by Ms. Elisabeth Badinter, daughter of the founder, recognises particularly deserving young men and women in 18 different areas of activity.

At the ceremony held at the Théâtre de Paris, the Ambassador of Monaco presented the H.S.H. Prince Albert II Prize to Mr. Antoine Boitel-Le Moal, a young 20-year-old dancer, who, after being studying at the Higher National Conservatory of Music in Dance, Paris, then the Higher National Conservatory of Lyon, is now joining the Dutch National Ballet of Amsterdam.

The vocational prize should enable this talented young man to finance part of the cost of his training and help him launch his future career.
