Graduates in black gowns and mortarboard hats are walking across a red carpet toward a stage. The stage is decorated with yellow fabric and white flowers, and has a backdrop with the flag of the Democratic Republic of Congo. People are seated on the stage, including individuals in suits and traditional attire. One person is speaking at a podium on the side of the stage. The event appears to be an outdoor graduation ceremony, with a blue tarp overhead.
