Overview
Djibouti's youth literacy rate stood at 79.55% in 2017. Djibouti ranked 44th globally.
Djibouti’s youth literacy rate stood at 79.55 percent in 2017, placing the country 44th in the world and representing both the earliest available observation and the all‑time peak for the indicator. Because the series spans only a single year, no trend can be inferred from historical fluctuations, and the rate coincides with the trough and peak values recorded for the same period. Compared with peer nations of similar rank, Djibouti trails Togo’s 82.51 percent and Papua New Guinea’s 82.72 percent while exceeding Pakistan’s 74.53 percent and Sierra Leone’s 73.60 percent, suggesting modest room for improvement relative to regional counterparts. The static nature of the data underscores the importance of expanding recent surveys to capture changes over time; sustained investment in primary education and adult‑learning programs could raise the youth literacy rate and shift Djibouti’s trajectory upward in forthcoming assessments.
