Living in Djibouti
Djibouti is a small nation on the Eastern coast of Africa, just below the Red Sea. Most of its inland border lies adjacent to Ethiopia to the west; Somalia is directly south, and Eritrea is north, with the east bordering the Gulf of Adan. The country’s capital city is also named Djibouti, and has a population of approximately 529,000, which comprises a significant proportion of the 942,000 residents that reside in the country as a whole. The country is ethnically diverse, with four official languages (Arabic, French, Somali and Afar); Islam is the only official religion. Politically, a democracy exists, though the leading party has been in office since elections began in 1979 and opposition parties are given limited freedom. As a result, in recent elections the main opposition has boycotted. The country’s location on the ‘Horn of Africa’ means that much of its economic activities are centred on international shipping through the Red Sea, and the Port of Djibouti is the central hub of this commerce. Overall however, there is 60% unemployment in urban areas, and the industrial is being focused on, with assistance from the World Bank, in an attempt to improve this. Tourism represents an opportunity for growth and Djibouti’s two great lakes, Abbe and Assal, are big attractions; however, visa issues exist, and currently the country remains a destination ‘off the beaten track’.
