Adwoa Tima Awuah stands out as the youngest and only black candidate among the top 10 finalists in the Miss Germany competition. The grand finale is scheduled to take place on February 24 at Europapark, Germany.
Expressing her mission at Miss Germany, Adwoa emphasized, “As a former migrant from Ghana to Germany, I know how challenging migration and integration can be, especially without sufficient support. My mission at Miss Germany is to create more empathy for migration and integration with a documentary. I also work at a psychosocial center to support migrants, especially the African community. This trip is more than a mission. It is my connection to my roots, the challenges of my family, and the difficulties of all those who had to leave their familiar surroundings and start anew in Germany.”
