About The Founder
Eliahu Behruz Yusian was born in 1980 in Iran - Isfahan. He completed twelve years of basic education (diploma) and three years of university education in Civil Engineering, specializing in Road and Building Construction, at Azad University of Kashan. He became familiar with various anti-Semitic and discriminatory social behaviors against religious and ethnic minorities through his life experiences. His father, Ya'akov Yusian who was the head of the TEJARAT Bank, was removed by the Islamic Republic regime and banned from serving in this position ever again just because he was a Jew.
Living and studying in the Islamic Republic of Iran, Behruz became acquainted with the different cultures and beliefs of this society. In 2003, he immigrated to Israel and spent a decade working in the Intelligence Corps of the Israel Defense Forces. Eliahu-Behruz received a variety of prestigious awards, the most notable being “The Israel Defence Award”, presented by the president of Israel. Behruz Yusian completed his studies at the graduate level in Middle Eastern Affairs at the School of National Security and Public Affairs at Bar-Ilan University in Israel and currently serves as a lecturer and researcher in Israel-Iran-Middle East affairs at the "Israel National Security and Defense Research Center."
