Miss Earth South Africa is now open for applications.
The closing date for applications is 8 April – just before the National Castings begin.
The castings will start in the Free State on 11–12 April, then to Johannesburg on 18–19 April; the Earth team will move to the Western Cape on 24–25 April and then, lastly, in Kwa-Zulu Natal over the first weekend of May.
Ella Bella and Catherine Constantinides are the founders of the Miss Earth South Africa leadership programme where they inspire and encourage young women around our beautiful country to get involved and do their bit for people and planet.
“It starts with us and, as women, we are the movers and shakers of communities, so it’s up to us to shake things up and get people thinking about ways in which they can help Mother Earth. When we look after Mother Earth, then she is able to continue to look after us,” the beauties said.
These castings are interviews and workshop sessions where all applicants are exposed to issues of the environment and ways in which they can contribute and be involved whether they proceed to the next round of the Miss Earth or not.
“A project day is also part of these castings and you are able to engage with the community and make a direct impact. Each woman goes away feeling empowered and educated on the plight facing the environment.”
Are you ready to do your bit to not only reduce, reuse and recycle, but to actively be involved in the green revolution? Apply and allow the programme to develop and equip you accordingly. Join the initiative and help communities to change behaviour and bad habits for the betterment of the environment and for a better way of living.
