The image depicts an outdoor scene in Ngalula, Democratic Republic of the Congo, centered around an adult male interacting with several children under the canopy of a large tree. The adult male, seated on an unseen surface, wears a beige polo shirt with "IO_DRC" and a tree logo, black trousers, black loafers, and a blue baseball cap with a white tree logo. He is holding a blue notebook and a blue pen, appearing to write. Six children surround him; three are clearly visible in the foreground looking towards the adult. One boy on the adult's left wears a blue and orange striped shirt, dark blue pants, and brown slides. Another boy, with his back to the camera, wears a red and white striped striped shirt, dirty light brown pants, and light brown slides. A girl on the adult's right wears a pink shirt with white embellishments and a patterned skirt. Another boy on the far right wears a faded blue "Spider-Man" shirt, dark blue jeans, and yellow slides. The ground is reddish-brown dirt. In the mid-ground, several single-story, reddish-brown mud or brick structures with various roofs (some corrugated metal, one blue tarp) are visible, indicative of a village setting. Additional children and adults are present in the background. Distant mountains with green vegetation define the horizon under a clear, light blue sky. An orange plastic bag is visible near the adult's feet.
