Beauty With Purpose Takes Centre Stage at Dublin Multicultural Event
A multicultural beauty pageant in Dublin recently brought together contestants, community representatives and cultural performers for an event focused on both personal achievement and social responsibility.
Twenty-four women from seven countries participated in the programme, which was attended by approximately 450 guests at the Church of Scientology & Community Centre.
The pageant was organised by Miss & Mrs Cross Continent Events Ltd., with support from Broccoli Care Ltd. and cooperation from The Truth About Drugs Ireland.
Drug education formed an important part of the event, with guided exhibition tours introducing visitors to information about commonly used drugs. Some participants completed all fourteen educational modules, demonstrating that their preparation went beyond the traditional pageant format.
Cllr. Francis Timmons, Mayor of South Dublin, spoke during the programme about the importance of bringing communities together through education.
The afternoon also included Irish, Indian and Indonesian dance Truth About Drugs 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. Fortunate Lindokuhle Masina and Yuki Yuliatin completed the top three as first and second runners-up.
The gathering connected beauty and cultural pride with leadership, informed choices and community involvement. The complete story can be read in this report about the multicultural pageant combining cultural celebration with drug education.
