The pageant also selects eight other representatives to participate in minor international pageants such as Miss Supranational, Miss Eco International, Miss Multinational, Reina Hispanoamericana, Miss Tourism, Miss Eco Teen International and Miss Environment International. In addition the organizer of the pageant also held its male counterpart Mister World Philippines to pick representatives to participate in Mister World, Mister Supranational, Mister Eco International, and Mister Multinational.

The pageant is inspired by the Miss World Ltd.'s slogan "Beauty with a Purpose" and henceforth adopted the theme "Beauty in Giving."

The winner and her court work with charities that benefit children in need and also join movements of supporting women and children's rights and many more advocacies.[1]

History

The pageant was conceived on January 25, 2011, when the franchise that was previously held by Binibining Pilipinas was awarded by Julia Morley, Chair and CEO of Miss World Limited, to Cory Quirino, who served as the exclusive licensee and national director for the Philippines from 2011 to 2016.[2] The pageant was officially launched on March 23, 2011, at the SMDC Showroom at the SM Mall of Asia.[3][4][5]

Quirino resigned as the national director on January 15, 2017, due to personal and business reasons.[6] A day later, Arnold Vegafria, who served as the talent manager of Miss World 2013 Megan Young, took over the position after he met with Morley. Under Vegafria's term, seven additional minor international beauty pageant titles are awarded namely: Miss Supranational Philippines, Miss Eco Philippines, Miss Multinational Philippines, Reina Hispanoamericana – Filipinas, Miss Philippines Tourism, Miss Eco Teen Philippines and Miss Environment Philippines for which they will represent the Philippines internationally.[7][8]

Prior to Miss World Philippines, the title was awarded through the Miss Republic of the Philippines pageant from 1966 to 1976, then by Mutya ng Pilipinas, Inc. through Mutya ng Pilipinas pageant from 1977 to 1991, and Binibining Pilipinas Charities, Inc. through the Binibining Pilipinas pageant from 1992 to 2010.[9]
