A group of people gathered in front of a building with large columns, holding signs advocating against violence and for women's empowerment. One sign reads 'NO VIOLENCE AGAINST' followed by different groups of people, written in colorful letters. Another sign urges to 'BREAK ALL the CHAINS!' and mentions the empowerment of women. The people are wearing casual clothing and some have orange shirts or jackets, and there is a uniformed officer present.
