Cross Continent Pageant Promotes Culture, Leadership and Drug Awareness

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

The event welcomed 24 contestants representing seven nations and attracted around 450 guests to the Church of Scientology & Community Centre of Dublin.

Broccoli Care Ltd. sponsored the programme, which was organised by Miss & Mrs Cross Continent Events Ltd. together with The Truth About Drugs Ireland.

The programme began with an educational exhibition where visitors could review factual information about drugs, addiction and prevention. Several contestants completed online drug-education courses before the event, with some finishing all fourteen modules.

In his address, Mayor Francis Timmons noted that education and positive leadership can help create healthier and more united communities.

Cultural performances added to the programme, including Irish news euromillions dance, Indian classical dance and traditional Indonesian presentations.

The principal title was awarded to Niveditha Vudayagiri, a software engineer who holds a master’s degree in AI. Fortunate Lindokuhle Masina and Yuki Yuliatin completed the top three as first and second runners-up.

The event demonstrated how multicultural celebrations can also provide a platform for education, responsibility and positive community engagement.
