Okawas is a dispersed community situated on a set of hills, and there is quite a distance between the various homes. To get there you must first cross a significant river on a boat, then continue on foot or horseback about an hour to the village. There is no vehicle access.
Okawas had its handover celebration recently, a major celebration complete with a band (who arrived on horseback), decorated facilities, and a visit by a Thierry Sciari, representing the funding organization, Res Publica from France.
