MISS EARTH 2002

Miss Earth 2002, the second edition of Miss Earth beauty pageant, was held in Quezon City, Philippines on October 29, 2002. In its second year, 53 delegates participated, exceeding the number of contestants in Miss International 2002, thereby becoming the world's third biggest international pageant in terms of number of contestants.[1][2]

Džejla Glavović of Bosnia-Herzegovina won the coveted title that year, also receiving Miss Talent. However, on May 28, 2003, the Miss Earth Foundation officially dethroned her for "violation of organization's rule and failure to perform required duties". 1st Runner-up from Kenya, Winfred Omwakwe, took over the position of Miss Earth 2002.
