Yann Ballanger

Yann Ballanger was introduced to the Faith in 2002 by Ms. Parivash Ardei-Amini when he visited the National Bahá’í Center in Paris after a long investigation into different religions and the purpose of life. A few years later, he left France for China to serve the Cause in different committees and has been living in Shanghai since then. In 2013, he began researching the early Bahá’í communities in Europe, mainly in France, from 1890 to 1930, and he began researching the life of Hippolyte Dreyfus-Barney in 2017, in collaboration with his spiritual mother, Ms. Ardei-Amini.
