Factsheet on Djibouti

- ECHO Daily flash of 06/08/2015

  • Djibouti hosts approximately 23,000 asylum seekers and refugees from Somalia and Eritrea who are in need of basic shelter, clean water and protection.
  • Following the Yemen crisis, more people, including 10 000 Yemenis, have arrived since March. This new influx is placing further strain on the country’s limited natural resources and services.
  • The Commission has just released an additional €1 million to help Djibouti face the increasing number of refugees and returnees fleeing from Yemen.
  • EU humanitarian funding goes to ensuring refugees have access to clean water and sanitation as well as shelter, protection, nutrition and health care. Cash is also given to boost their self-reliance.
