group of around 15 people gathered in an open-air space, possibly a courtyard or veranda. They are seated in chairs and on benches, facing a man who is standing and addressing the group. He is wearing a white vest and appears to be lecturing or giving a presentation, gesturing with his hands and holding a small object. Some of the attendees are taking notes, while others are listening attentively. There is another man standing near a doorway in the background who seems to be observing. The setting looks like a community center or a similar public space in a rural or semi-urban area. The general atmosphere appears to be formal and attentive.
