Democracy

  • The image depicts a statue, likely an elephant, that is visibly weathered and covered in numerous political posters and flyers. These posters, in various colors, are peeling and overlapping, suggesting a history of political campaigns or events. The statue is situated in an outdoor area, surrounded by greenery and a fence in the background. The overall scene conveys a sense of urban life and the passage of time through the accumulation of posters. Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger...

  • The image depicts a scene from a polling station during a parliamentary election. A man, likely an election official, is holding up a ballot sheet for voters to see. In front of him is a transparent box labeled "PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS," suggesting it's used for collecting votes. In the background, several people are gathered, observing the process, while some focus on the official. The setting appears to be outdoors, possibly in a community area, and there's a sense of engagement and participation in the democratic process.

  • The image depicts a protest scene with a group of people holding signs and banners. In the foreground, a woman is speaking into a megaphone, likely leading the demonstration. The signs feature the number "54" and messages opposing censorship, suggesting that the protest is focused on issues related to freedom of expression or press freedom. The crowd appears to be actively engaged in the protest, raising their signs and voicing their demands. The setting seems to be outdoors, with flags and possibly a government building in the background. Tunisia: Media Under Pressure Lilia Blaise · October 2024
