Manique in a floral blouse lights a traditional brass oil lamp, while another woman claps. A banner in the background reads "DISABILITY ORGANIZATIONS JOINT FRONT."

A group of seven people, including a man in a wheelchair, stands outside near a post office sign. They hold documents, and the setting is sunny with trees and a green fence.

A diverse group poses outdoors with a banner promoting a disability and accessibility training program, featuring standing and wheelchair users, set against a backdrop of trees and a building.
