The first Miss & Mrs Cross Continent event in Dublin showed how a pageant can combine Ireland cultural diversity, leadership and practical community education.
Twenty-four women from seven countries participated in the programme, which was attended by approximately 450 guests at the Church of Scientology & Community Centre.
Organised by Miss & Mrs Cross Continent Events Ltd. and sponsored by Broccoli Care Ltd., the programme was developed in collaboration with The Truth About Drugs Ireland.
Participants were invited to explore educational materials explaining the risks and effects associated with drug abuse. Many of the contestants studied Truth About Drugs materials in advance, and several completed the full series of fourteen online courses.
Mayor of South Dublin Cllr. Francis Timmons addressed the audience and highlighted the value of cultural diversity, education and prevention.
The afternoon also included Irish, Indian and Indonesian dance performances, reflecting the international character of the gathering.
The principal title was awarded to Niveditha Vudayagiri, a software engineer who holds a master’s degree in AI. The first runner-up title went to Fortunate Lindokuhle Masina, followed by Yuki Yuliatin as second runner-up.
The pageant showed that public events can celebrate talent and diversity while also addressing important social concerns. The complete story can be read in this report about the multicultural pageant combining cultural celebration with drug education.
