About EP-WGAS

Ιn 2012, the European Jewish Congress contributed to the establishment of the Working Group against Antisemitism (WGAS), which continues to serve as an active voice within the European Parliament. The EJC remains closely involved in its work, acting as Secretariat and as a leading member of its Advisory Board.

Working Group Against Antisemitism is established to unite Members of the European Parliament at a cross-party level to improve the European Union’s efforts to combat antisemitism in all its contemporary manifestations.
