Thank you for your interest in the Miss Universe Organization. The Miss Universe Organization exists to advocate for a future forged by women. We are committed to supporting today’s women and furthering their ideals and goals through the celebration of their diversity, achievements, and beauty. In addition, we provide an international forum to heighten awareness of global health and youth-related issues. The role of a National Director demands industry experience, communication skills, and a network of contacts to help these women achieve their goals and build a platform from which to pursue their interests.

Our National Directors are an extension of our brand and mission. We require our directors to provide a safe, comfortable, and exciting experience to every woman participating in our system. Additionally, we reserve the right to run financial and background checks on prospective National Directors to ensure overall brand and trademark integrity. If MUO grants you a license, please note that we reserve the right to conduct audits whenever we deem applicable.
