This grant is for supporting the pivotal 2011 Presidential and Regional Council elections in Djibouti. These elections, the third presidential and second regional since 1977, represent a critical juncture with the potential to break from the status quo and introduce unprecedented levels of competition and pluralism. The Regional Council elections, featuring non-party affiliated independent members, offer a significant opportunity to broaden local participation. Concurrently, President Guelleh’s constitutional mandate ends in 2011, creating an opening for new leadership. This grant aims to foster democratic development and positive political change through strategic engagement with these transformative electoral processes in Djibouti.
