The continental platform that first amplified Designing for Diversity and introduced Snit’s inclusion work to a wider diaspora audience.
For Snit, pageantry is a cultural stage, a public responsibility and a way to bring the message of inclusion into rooms it may not otherwise reach.
Pageantry gives Snit a unique language of visibility. Fashion, cultural representation and public presence can attract attention in an instant. Her work is to ensure that attention does not stop at the image.
As Miss World Eritrea, she uses the platform to celebrate the country’s heritage while inviting audiences to see children with disabilities through a fuller lens: not as people to be hidden or underestimated, but as children with dignity, personality, ability and potential.
The pageant journey is therefore a central part of Designing for Diversity. It provides the reach; the advocacy gives that reach direction.
Across three major stages, Snit has represented Eritrea while carrying the same message: visibility matters most when it opens the way to belonging, learning and opportunity.

At Miss Universe 2024, Snit won the People’s Choice Award and a Silver Award in the Voice for Change competition. She brought Eritrean identity into global view while using that attention to keep inclusion in the conversation.
As Eritrea’s first Miss World representative, Snit carried her culture and Beauty With a Purpose project onto a new international stage. She won the People’s Choice Award after securing a world-record total of over 12 million votes.
Snit is planning to lead the Miss World Eritrea organization with her partners. The proposed competition pathway would include pageants in different cities, followed by a final show bringing together the finalists from each continent. The organization plans to train, prepare and manage the winner for the international Miss World stage.
