{"Image ImageDescription": "A young boy uses a sanitary latrine outside a UNICEF supported school in the village of Dafo, situated 5 km from the city of Tadjourah, in the southern Djibouti.\n \nDjibouti is one of the smallest and most arid countries in the planet. Temperatures are high, sometimes reaching up to 47\u00b0C during the driest period from May to October. Water is as precious as it is scarce. Since the drought that started in 2007, rainfall has been reduced to approximately 50% of previous levels. The levels of underground water tables dropped significantly. Many water shallow wells dried up. In rural areas, the situation is far more difficult. People\u200a\u2014\u200aespecially women and children\u200a\u2014\u200ahave to walk a minimum of half an hour to reach the closest water source.\n \nThe village of Dafo, is home to hundreds of families. They live in an extreme climatic condition, with only few natural resources. Thanks to UNICEF support, the village has currently its own water point, and the school equiped with proper water and sanitation services using the technology of solar pumping mechanism.\n \nIn rural areas, over 84 per cent of those with access to improved water are using shared facilities; therefore, it is importance that communities themselves take the lead in the maintenance of those new facilities.\n \nUSAID funding helps UNICEF scale up this initiative in other regions. Across the country, a further 12,020 people will regain access to drinking water through the rehabilitation of wells and extension of the water distribution network, thanks to the support of UNICEF and USAID.", "Image Make": "NIKON CORPORATION", "Image Model": "NIKON Df", "Image Orientation": "Horizontal (normal)", "Image XResolution": "72", "Image YResolution": "72", "Image ResolutionUnit": "Pixels/Inch", "Image Software": "Capture One 9 Macintosh", "Image Artist": "Shehzad Noorani", "Image Copyright": "\u00a9 Shehzad Noorani", "Image ExifOffset": "1844", "EXIF ExposureTime": "1/640", "EXIF FNumber": "5", "EXIF ExposureProgram": "Manual", "EXIF ISOSpeedRatings": "100", "EXIF SensitivityType": "Recommended Exposure Index", "EXIF ExifVersion": "0230", "EXIF DateTimeOriginal": "2018:02:06 16:38:02", "EXIF DateTimeDigitized": "2018:02:06 16:38:02", "EXIF ShutterSpeedValue": "5994/643", "EXIF ApertureValue": "6311/1359", "EXIF ExposureBiasValue": "-1/3", "EXIF MaxApertureValue": "3", "EXIF MeteringMode": "Pattern", "EXIF LightSource": "Unknown", "EXIF Flash": "Flash did not fire", "EXIF FocalLength": "24", "EXIF SubSecTimeOriginal": "20", "EXIF SubSecTimeDigitized": "20", "EXIF ColorSpace": "sRGB", "EXIF ExifImageWidth": "900", "EXIF ExifImageLength": "599", "EXIF SensingMethod": "One-chip color area", "EXIF FileSource": "Digital Camera", "EXIF SceneType": "Directly Photographed", "EXIF CustomRendered": "Normal", "EXIF ExposureMode": "Manual Exposure", "EXIF WhiteBalance": "Auto", "EXIF DigitalZoomRatio": "1", "EXIF FocalLengthIn35mmFilm": "24", "EXIF SceneCaptureType": "Standard", "EXIF GainControl": "None", "EXIF Contrast": "Normal", "EXIF Saturation": "Normal", "EXIF Sharpness": "Normal", "EXIF SubjectDistanceRange": "0", "EXIF BodySerialNumber": "3005314", "EXIF LensSpecification": "[24, 70, 14/5, 14/5]", "EXIF LensModel": "Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8G ED"}
