Miss Earth 2002, the second edition of Miss Earth pageant, was held in Pasay, Philippines on 29 October 2002.[1][2] 53 delegates participated, exceeding the number of contestants in Miss International 2002, Miss Earth thereby becoming the world's third biggest international pageant in terms of number of contestants.[3][4]

Džejla Glavović of Bosnia & Herzegovina won the 2002 title, also receiving Miss Talent.[5][6] However, on May 28, 2003, the Miss Earth Foundation officially dethroned her "due to her failure to comply with the stipulations in her contract." First runner-up from Kenya, Winfred Omwakwe, took over the position of Miss Earth 2002.[7][8] Omwakwe was formally crowned as the new Miss Earth 2002 on August 7, 2003 at the Carousel Gardens in Mandaluyong City, Philippines.[9][10]
