Nov 22 - After Kenya's disputed presidential elections hundred of thousands of people were forced to leave their homes and move into camps.

The humanitarian crisis erupted after incumbent President Mwai Kibaki was declared the winner of the presidential election held on December 27, 2007. During the turmoil, about 1,300 people were killed and 300,000 driven from their homes. A few months ago, the country launched an operation to resettle them but not everyone is back home yet.
