A woman bathes inside the Settikulam Internally Displaced People (IDP) camp in northern Sri Lanka August 15, 2009. Many people who escaped from LTTE-controlled areas during the war have been living in IDP camps since the end of the Sri Lanka government's campaign against Tamil Tiger rebels, and will be resettled to villages in the north.
