Unique
The Miss Cultural Heritage Pageant concept is unique to other pageant concepts
not just by name, mission, vision and objectives but also its programmes and
production which are purely heritage. The fusion of heritage and beauty
pageantry is very much an astute noble idea because it creates the idea of
modelling for a purpose that is greater and deeper, making pageantry a tool for
sustainable development. To represent a nation’s heritage is an important
aspect because heritage is everything that a nation is made up of, from the
physical and personality characteristics of the people, the values, the climate,
the religion, literature, the laws, the man-made and natural features, the
history and the current affairs and the ideas and philosophy of that country.
All these things make up a country and they are the national pride and national
treasure of each country.
The pageant looks beyond a tiara and a sash but to a totally rebranded way of
cultural indulgence, one that impacts the economy and improves the lives of the
people of the people of Eswatni. Miss Cultural Heritage remains obligated to
preserve our cultural heritage in the economic progression to the First World.
Miss Cultural Heritage has a duty to uphold then traditional values of the
country and further embrace Vision 2022, carry both goals with dignity and
without compromise of the other. The goal is to breed a queen who is proud of
her culture, one who will guard it with and progress with it to the First World.
This year’s event will trend as ‘My_Cultural_Elegance’.
