Multicultural Pageant in Dublin Combines Beauty, Culture and Drug Education

Blog Article

Beauty, culture and community education came together in Dublin during the first Miss & Mrs Cross Continent pageant.

Approximately 450 people attended the Dublin programme, where 24 contestants representing seven nations presented their cultures, talents and personal messages.

The organisers worked with The Truth About Drugs Ireland to include an educational element alongside the pageant and cultural performances.

Before taking part in the stage programme, contestants and visitors toured a Truth About Drugs exhibition and learned about the effects of commonly abused substances. Some participants completed all fourteen educational modules, demonstrating that their preparation went beyond the traditional pageant news eu migration format.

Mayor of South Dublin Cllr. Francis Timmons addressed the audience and highlighted the value of cultural diversity, education and prevention.

Guests enjoyed performances representing Irish, Indian and Indonesian traditions throughout the afternoon.

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.

By combining cultural expression with drug education, the programme gave the traditional pageant format a wider social purpose. The complete story can be read in this report about the multicultural pageant combining cultural celebration with drug education.
