The director of Miss Earth Kenya has called for stronger environmental action that goes beyond awareness campaigns, with the national pageant placing greater emphasis on sustainability, leadership, and measurable community impact.
Ms Beverly Amondi has continued to champion environmental advocacy as a tool for turning conversations around sustainability into practical action.
The platform describes Miss Earth Kenya as a national mentorship programme focused on environmental and cultural sustainability, with candidates expected to demonstrate their ability to lead, create impact and champion meaningful environmental initiatives.
The 2026/27 edition has placed particular emphasis on advocacy journeys, traction and the potential for candidates to create sustained impact in their communities.
According to the organisation, the pageant is seeking young women who can use their platforms to address environmental challenges while inspiring communities to adopt more sustainable practices.
The initiative also encourages participation beyond the crown through the Team Earth Community, which brings together individuals, schools, businesses, researchers, creatives and other stakeholders working on sustainability initiatives.
In this interview, Ms Amondi talks more about pageantry, advocacy and purpose.
