Ten years after Hawaii's largest and longest-run WWII POW and incarceration
camp was designated as a National Park, per the Proclamation, Honouliuli is a
"powerful reminder of the need to protect civil liberties in times of
conflict... It is a place to reflect on wartime experiences and recommit
ourselves to the pursuit of freedom and justice.” Join us in continuing this
legacy.

On the upper slopes of the northern Ko‘olau Mountains exist some of the last
remaining native intact forests on O‘ahu. In December 2000, thousands of acres
became part of the National Wildlife Refuge System to protect and recover
endangered, threatened, and other rare wildlife, and to protect native
biodiversity on the refuge.

O‘ahu Forest National Wildlife Refuge is home to the endangered pūpū kani oe
(O‘ahu tree snails); endangered plant species; and many native birds;
including the O‘ahu ‘elepaio, ‘i‘iwi, pueo, and native honeycreepers.
