At a few months from the onset of Miss Progress International, the first competition dedicated to the environment protection, health, cultural integration and human rights, the three founders of the cultural association In Progress, based in San Giorgio Ionico can already provide a range of "numbers" of all respect.
It is up to Giusy Noble, the president of the Apulian group, to declare them: "The meticulous work of research and contacts with event organizers spread all over the planet - she says - has enabled us to reach the remarkable figure of sixty nations and to count on the commitment of so many competitors who will be eager to give their contribution to social causes and humanitarian that characterize our event."

The projects presented will be spread throughout the world due to their publication (in four languages) on the event's website and carry messages that are intended to improve the human condition and life on our planet.
