Education in Djibouti

The education system of Djibouti is strongly influenced by Arabs and France's colonial empire.[citation needed]

The Human Rights Measurement Initiative (HRMI)[1] finds that Djibouti is fulfilling only 44.6% of what it should be fulfilling for the right to education based on the country's level of income.[2] HRMI breaks down the right to education by looking at the rights to both primary education and secondary education. While taking into consideration Djibouti's income level, the nation is achieving 45.9% of what should be possible based on its resources (income) for primary education but only 43.3% for secondary education.[3]
