SACC by EJC was founded in 2012 by Dr. Moshe Kantor, President of the European Jewish Congress, in the wake of the Toulouse attack.
SACC by EJC was established to address the rising security challenges facing Jewish communities in Europe.
Dr. Moshe Kantor is a prominent public figure, international philanthropist, and scientist. He serves as President of the European Jewish Congress (EJC), a democratically elected role he first held from 2007 to 2022, and to which he was re-elected in May 2025 for a further four-year term.
Globally recognised for his leadership in the fight against antisemitism, extremism, Holocaust denial, and intolerance, Dr. Moshe Kantor places the prosperity, freedom, and security of Jewish communities at the forefront of his work. Under his leadership, the EJC and SACC by EJC have become a strong, unified, and authoritative voice for Jewish communities across Europe.
