Such a bloody July will not return
This project is dedicated to the people of Bangladesh.
The 2024 Bangladesh Quota Reform Movement was a pro-democracy protest in Bangladesh, led primarily by students from public and private universities. Initially focused on reforming the discriminatory traditional and quota-based system for recruitment to government jobs, the movement expanded against what many perceived as an authoritarian government when hundreds of protesters and civilians, mostly students, were killed. The shooting by police and other government forces resulted in casualties and the use of deadly weapons, against unarmed protesters and non-protesting civilians, including children and pedestrians. Our project is here to show to the students, children, and people who lost their lives in the Quota Reform Movement.

A solitary dead tree by a brimming lake echoes the defiant silence of Abu Sayeed, who faced heavily armed police with an open arms. Even in abundance, silence speaks louder.

Life knows no exclusion, it also knows no classes and that's why I have no understanding of what's going on in Bangladesh.

But violence from the other side that wants to enforce its will is not to be answered with violence, but with arguments and refusal of the wanted things.

Four roses, their petals intertwined, stand together—a delicate yet unwavering alliance. Each bloom represents a student’s voice, a plea for change. In their crimson hues, they echo the passion and determination of those challenging the status quo, demanding justice, and refusing to forget the events of that bloody July.

A UNESCO Wold Heritage festival Inevitably it is necessary to give a historical perspective of this yearly festival that takes place in the city of La Paz, Bolivia. The celebration transforms and stimulates the social life of La Paz every year, emanating from a particular way of understanding and living Andean Catholicism. The Parade begins with a procession through the western part of the city. This procession is central to the event, involving 40,000 devotees who dance and sing in an offering to the patron saint. The dance has a sacred significance for the sixty-nine fraternities involved, which are greeted in the streets in a euphoric atmosphere where the music of 7,000 musicians resonates. It is so owe inspiring that it is rightfully a UNESCO Wold Heritage event (Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity).
