The goal of the Miss Arab Universe Pageant is to select an outstanding young Arab woman who will represent the Arab culture globally for one year. Our pageant stands apart from others worldwide by not considering swimsuit competitions or specific body criteria. Instead, we focus on celebrating the Beauty of the Mind, Community Pride, and Education. The pageant winner will be chosen based on her overall Elegance, Education and World Knowledge, Skill Set, Talents, Community Involvement, and Service.
