The Gambia otherwise called the smiling coast of Africa has never been left out in the world of fashion, beauty and creativity.
The country over the years participated and continue to participate in series of fashion and beauty related competitions at both local and International level.The country is blessed with beautiful, intelligent, smart and creative young girls, who from the inception of fashion and beauty competitions continues to grab awards and other crowns which earned them titles of beauty queens thus the glory added to the good name of The Gambia as a nation.

This year's event is the second edition oragnised by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in the said River state of Nigeria.
The coveted Miss ECOWAS beauty pageant as it has always been the case with other beauty pageants aimed among other things towards promoting and strengthening the ideals of peace and the pace of development within the subregion of west Africa and beyond. The theme of this year's event is "Peace and Development in Diversity". As the theme suggested, participants will be require to present peaceful messages that befitted the objectives of the programme.The venue has been choosen due to the relative and steady peace enjoyed in that state of Nigeria thus set it as an example for states to emulate.

The team panel of judges would also consider confidence, self assured and the ability to have a sense of self control in a wide variety of settings. The lucky winner of this historic subregional beauty competition will be decorated ECOWAS peace Ambassador and would stand to sign series of contracts with the Subregional body as well as other stakeholders interested in promoting peace and development in ECOWAS member states and beyond.
The Gambia's participation to the ECOWAS peace pageant is coordinated by the famous Gomez Promotions in collaboration with the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Employment,the ministry of Tourism and Culture and the Ministry of Youth and Sports as well as a strong support from the Office of the president.
