    Two Chabad-run Noahide organizations 7for70
    directed by Rabbi Boaz Kali from Israel and www.noahide.org directed by Rabbi Yaakov Cohen have received official recognition from the United Nations, and are authorized to work in the UN. This was the conclusion of a five-year process undertaken by Rabbi Cohen to push the organizations thru.

    Their first official visit to the UN included participation in selecting the new judges for the International Criminal Court in The Hague. Rabbi Cohen asked the judges if the plan on judging with the fear of heaven, thus fulfilling one of the Seven Noahide laws.

    The organizations are in the process of finding a permanent Shliach to the UN who will represent their organizations.



    Shliach

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaliah

    A shaliaḥ (Hebrew: שָלִיחַ‎; pl. שְלִיחִים, sheliḥim) in Halakha is a Jewish legal emissary or agent. Accordingly, a shaliaḥ performs an act of legal significance for the benefit of the sender, as opposed to him or herself. It is the Hebrew equivalent of the Greek word for apostle.

    The Rome Statute entered into force on 1 July 2002 after ratification by 60 countries.
