**Miss Earth Liberia** is the official title given to Liberia's delegate to the [Miss Earth](/source/Miss_Earth) pageant. The pageant focuses mainly on promoting environmental causes and winners are chosen equally on their physical attributes as well as their understanding and knowledge of the issues affecting the earth.

## History

In 2005, the Miss Earth Liberia franchise was obtained by Beauties of Africa Inc., owned by Mr. Andy A. Abulime. However, the first year Liberia sent a representative to Miss Earth was in 2006 with Rachel Bidmia Njinimbam as the first Miss Earth Liberia titleholder and competed in [Miss Earth 2006](/source/Miss_Earth_2006).[1]

In 2008, Liberia was represented at [Miss Earth 2008](/source/Miss_Earth_2008) by Marit Woods.[2][3]

In 2018, Wokie Dolo, former [Miss World Liberia 2017](/source/Miss_Liberia) and owner of La Queen Entertainment serves as the national director.[4][5] The pageant was formed in partnership with The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA); winner automatically becomes the ambassador of the EPA.[6][7]

The 2020 pageant that was due to be held in March 2020, was postponed to September due to the [COVID-19 pandemic](/source/COVID-19_pandemic).[8][9]

In September 2020, the [President of Liberia](/source/President_of_Liberia), [George Weah](/source/George_Weah) congratulated the winners of Miss Earth Liberia 2020 for promoting the country's tourism industry as part of the [United Nations World Tourism Organization](/source/United_Nations_World_Tourism_Organization)'s [World Tourism Day](/source/World_Tourism_Day).[10][11] The Liberian President also recorded a song, “Da who will win” dedicated to the contestants of Miss Earth Liberia pageant.[12][13]
