Four Jewish Leaders from Miami Participated in The Jewish Federations of North America’s First-Ever Mission to the United Nations

Four Jewish leaders from Miami joined their peers from 50 other communities last week in New York for The Jewish Federations of North America’s first-ever mission to the United Nations, chaired by Saby Behar, a Past President of the Greater Miami Jewish Federation. The one-day trip enabled participants to discuss the Israel and overseas agenda, as well as Israel's concerns, with UN Ambassadors from Israel, Ukraine, France and Canada; the Middle East representative of the UN; and the chief spokesman for UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon.
