· Sri Lanka
Carrying the hopes and dreams of 23 million Sri Lankans, 21-year-old Chenuli Vonara Kevin Wickramasinghe is set to represent Sri Lanka at Miss Global 2026 in Thailand.
A Sri Lankan beauty queen, children’s rights advocate and European Politics student based in the Netherlands, Chenuli brings together a multicultural background with a strong connection to her Sri Lankan heritage.
Born in Colombo and raised across Sri Lanka, Thailand and the Netherlands, Chenuli has embraced her diverse upbringing while remaining deeply connected to her roots.
Her pageant journey began at the age of 18 and has since taken her to international stages representing Sri Lanka. She previously earned the Best National Costume title at The Miss Globe before being crowned Miss Global Sri Lanka.
However, Chenuli’s ambitions extend beyond the pageant stage. She is passionate about creating opportunities for children and advocating for their rights. She serves as a Child Rights Ambassador for Child Action Lanka, is the founder of the Valiant Hearts Project and has previously worked as a UNICEF Student Council partner.
Through these roles, Chenuli has worked to promote equal access to education and opportunities for children across Sri Lanka.
With purpose, pride and compassion at the heart of her journey, Chenuli hopes to showcase Sri Lankan culture on the international stage while inspiring young people to believe in the power of education and opportunity.
As she heads to Thailand for Miss Global 2026, Sri Lanka wishes Chenuli Vonara Wickramasinghe every success as she carries the Sri Lankan flag onto the global stage.
