Monrovia — Miss Earth Liberia beauty pageant, one of the most significant environmental events, is set to take place tomorrow.
The contest is aimed at raising awareness about environmental conservation and promoting eco-friendly practices among the Liberian community.
The beauty pageant, which is usually held annually, boasts of a history of grooming young ladies with beautiful hearts, an encyclopedic knowledge of environmental issues, and a deep passion for advocacy.
The contestants are not only judged based on their physical appearance but also their ability to engage in environmental issues.
This year's event will be held at the ministerial Complex in Congo Town and will feature various exciting activities such as performances by local artists, and stupendous performances from the contestants among others.
The winner of the Miss Earth Liberia beauty pageant will represent Liberia at the international Miss Earth Pageant, which will take place later this year.
