In Memoriam: Jean-François Zurawik
Updated: Nov 13, 2020

Dear ILO members,
We are very sad to announce the passing of Jean-François Zurawik.
He has been at the very creation of ILO, many years ago and has always been a reference for many of us.
He will for sure remain a Light over our community and seeing the confusion that is spreading fast on media today, we can say he had a profound influence on the Festival of Light area.
He has held the position of the Director of Events in the city of Lyon, including the direction of the famous “Fête des Lumières”.
On top of that, speaking of a great man, he was a great person and many of us have had the opportunity to share moments of friendship with him, all around the world.
Jean-François, your light will continue to shine on ILO!
