Our vision
A world of well-built communities

About us
METIO is a social enterprise enabling community organisations to build the infrastructure they need. We provide end-to-end services to plan, fund and construct buildings and other spaces. Founded on principles of community-led development, we drive projects from behind so that community organisations can bring the buildings they need to life.

Our philosophy 
We believe that quality infrastructure can provide the foundation for a thriving community. Too often, communities lack necessary facilities, and existing infrastructure is in poor condition. The complexity and cost of construction often leave these needs unmet. METIO collaborates closely with community organisations to deliver culturally appropriate and environmentally sustainable buildings and facilities that generate lasting social and economic benefits. By placing communities at the heart of our work, we ensure community initiative and insight forms the foundation of each project.

Our role
METIO provides a one-stop shop. We guide clients through every step of a project’s process. We leverage our network of partners to offer comprehensive project services from beginning to end of a project life-cycle, working with communities through needs assessment, design coordination, planning, grant writing, tendering, and project management. We are experienced in delivering projects in remote and challenging locations, and ensure that our projects are appropriate to place and culture.

Our team
Our team includes professionals skilled in community engagement, project management, sustainable design, and grant writing, bringing decades of experience delivering projects across Australia and Southeast Asia.  

Our diverse expertise allows us to foster effective partnerships and navigate complex environments, enabling us to deliver essential infrastructure tailored to the unique needs of each community we serve.
