Tel Aviv Annual Iran Conference:
The Iranian Revolution: Thirty Years After
Tel Aviv University, May 24-25th
The conference is the largest Iran symposium ever to take place in Israel, as it will bring together 40 scholars on Iran from around the world. They will assess the state of the Islamic Republic from a broad range of perspectives, including Iran's domestic and regional politics; Iranian society, politics, culture, religion, and economy; and the role of minorities in Iran, with an emphasis on the Jewish community. Following the inauguration of President Obama in the U.S., the new Netanyahu government in Israel, and the upcoming presidential elections in Iran, the conference will also address important and timely developments regarding the Islamic Republic of Iran and the region.
For those guests traveling from abroad, please let us know which days you will be attending the conference so that we can reserve seating for you.

Jewish and Persian Connections Mission
In response to statements emanating from the Middle East regarding nuclear threat to both the Jewish and Persian peoples, we seek to project an alternative voice on Jewish- Persian relations that disseminates knowledge about the historical and cultural ties between these two peoples, fosters friendship and openings for creative exchange, and contributes to the identity of adults and children of mixed Jewish and Persian ancestry.
