Eliav Geissmann<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n Eliav Geissmann, General Manager<\/p>\n\n\n\n Married to Aviva, father of three, Eliav did his Alyah in 2002 as part of the Naale Program, for young people doing their Alyah without their parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He grew up in Paris, within a family with much involvement in the life of the French Jewish community. \u201cI felt at the time of the second intifada the need to do my Alyah, to live fully with my people, on my land\u201d. Eliav therefore participated in the first promotion of the Naale program, in 11th<\/sup> grade class. \u201cAfterwards, I realized that this was the best way for me to get to Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Eliav did his military service from 2004 in the IDF paratroopers. \u201cIn the military I fully understood the meaning of ideas, such as \u2018the return of the exiles\u2019, or involvement in a group. Soldiers, friends for life, brothers in arms from all political backgrounds, from all over the world and from all origins. And all these differences did not prevent us from taking part together in the second Lebanon war in 2006.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n After his service, he worked in security services outside Israel, then supervised and managed Ben Shemen\u2019s Naale France Program for five years. At the same time, he obtained a B.A. degree from Ariel University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2014, Eliav participated in the creation of Hadassim\u2019s Naale France Program. A year later he was selected to be a delegate of the Jewish Agency in France. He\u2019ll work there for three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Since 2018 and his return to Israel, Eliav joined the association Negba and fulfilled various leadership roles there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/negba.org\/negba2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/IMG_8451-2-200x300.jpg\")
