COUNTRYBACKGROUND AND STRATEGY Country Background and Flood History 1. Djibouti is a small country. Its population is estimated at 500,000, two thirds ofwhich lives in the capital, Djibouti City. It ispoorly endowed in natural resources (limited arable land, rainfall and underground water.) It benefits, however, mainly from its strategic location on the Red Sea’s southern entrance for military and regional international shipping purposes. Djibouti’s main revenues come from the activities of its port and related transport and logistics business as well as from the rental of military bases to France since independence in 1977, and most recently to the US and from the services associated with these bases. This is reflected in the large share of the service sector in the economy which accounts for 70 percent of GDP. 2. Djibouti’s social indicators are amongst the lowest in the world. Recent data from EDAM- IS shows that poverty in Djibouti is both extremely high and increasing. In 2002, about three fourth (74 percent) of the population lived under relative poverty line and 42 percent under extreme poverty, compared to 45 percent and 10 percent, respectively, in 1996. While the surveys show that the most dramatic poverty incidence is in rural areas as 83% of the rural population live in extreme poverty, Djibouti City shelters the largest number ofpoor people and contributes by itself to 65% and 57% to relative and extreme poverty, respectively. The study finds that the incidence ofrelative and extreme poverty is the strongest among households whose heads are unemployed. Unemployment which is estimated at 52%, contributes to about 65% to
