The image shows a group of people standing on a staircase in a building. There are around 20 people in the group, all dressed in formal attire. They are arranged in a semi-circle, facing the camera. The group appears to be of African descent, with some men and women of different ages and ethnicities. Some of them are wearing suits and ties, while others are wearing traditional African clothing. The staircase is made of stone and has a red railing on either side. The background shows a beige-colored wall with arches and plants. The overall mood of the image is serious and professional.
