Arsen Ostrovsky

CEO of The International Legal Forum

Arsen Ostrovsky is a leading human rights attorney and CEO of The International Legal Forum (ILF), an Israel-based NGO with a global network of over 4,000 lawyers and activists, standing up for Israel and leading the fight against Antisemitism, BDS and terror in the international legal arena.

ILF has been at the forefront of some of the most significant legal battles for Israel this past year, including successfully taking on Ben & Jerry's, Amnesty and the hypocrisy and lies of the United Nations. In a landmark case, ILF has just filed the first civil rights legal claim against UC Berkeley, following their unprecedented attempt to exclude Jewish and Zionist students from campus activities.

As one of the most prominent voices in the pro-Israel community and experts on international law, Arsen regularly addresses the UN Human Rights Council, and speaks before parliaments across Europe and audiences in North America. He also has a digital media reach in the millions of users on Twitter alone. In 2018, Arsen was awarded the Nefesh B’Nefesh Bonei Zion prize for his ‘Israel Advocacy’. (Photo: courtesy)
