Social inequalities

  • The image features a juxtaposition of two buildings. On the left, there is a modern structure with large blue-tinted windows and metal panels. On the right, an older building displays a weathered wall with patches of peeling paint and exposed textures. A couple of small windows with turquoise shutters add color to the aged facade. Additionally, air conditioning units are mounted on the wall, contrasting the contemporary look of the building on the left with the rustic charm of the one on the right. The overall color palette is a mix of cool blues and warm earthy tones. Tunisia: In L’Ariana, Fast-Track Modernisation Najla Ben Salah · September 2021
  • The image features a man expressing anger or frustration, likely as part of a protest or social movement. The text includes the word "مقاطعون" (meaning "we boycott" in Arabic) and suggests a call for a boycott against certain products, as represented by crossed-out symbols of specific beverages: Sidi Ali (a water brand), Afriquia (a drink brand), and another beverage. The background shows a crowd, indicating that this is related to a larger movement or demonstration. Overall, it conveys a strong message of dissent against these brands.

  • The image features a smiling woman holding a small child. The woman is wearing a colorful headscarf, and her expression is warm and cheerful. The child, who is dressed in a bright red sweater with a patterned design, looks happy and is facing the camera, showing a playful smile. The background appears to be a textured wall, suggesting an outdoor or rustic setting. The overall mood of the image is joyful and intimate, capturing a moment of connection between the woman and the child.
