Miss Universe Fiji contestants visited the maternity ward at Navua Hospital yesterday as part of their community engagement activities. During their visit, the contestants met with Dr. Kapil Swamy, the Senior Doctor of Serua/Namosi, midwife Samantha Banner from the Navua Maternity Unit, and Salote Matanayawa, Commander of the Navua Command Centre. They took the opportunity to ask questions regarding the challenges faced by young mothers in the country.
Additionally, the contestants attended an educational class led by Melissa White, the director of the International Seakeepers Society for the South Pacific, which focused on oceanographic research and conservation efforts. The Miss Universe Fiji event has partnered with The Pearl Resort & Spa as the official host for the 2024 Miss Universe Fiji National Final.
The crowning of Miss Universe Fiji will take place tonight at Pacific Harbour.
