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.^[1]

In 2008, Liberia was represented at Miss Earth 2008 by Marit Woods.^[2]^[3]

In 2018, Wokie Dolo, former Miss World Liberia 2017 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.^[8]^[9]

In September 2020, the President of Liberia, 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's 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]
