Social Responsibility
At MODE, we are playing our part in building a sustainable future and view our social responsibility as an extension of our purpose 'Better Environments Through Unique Design'.
Leveraging our world of experience and expertise, MODE integrates environmental, social and governance factors into our decision making. Our commitment to building a sustainable future is by taking action in the areas where we can have the greatest impact.
Environment
We are committed to protecting the environment and the planet we live on. It is not enough to just reduce our impact on the environment, we want to go further and have a positive impact.
People
We value the people, partners and suppliers who make our projects possible and we work hard to make our workplaces inclusive, safe, and motivating.
Community
We utilise our design skills to contribute to sustainable communities, and integrate our four pillars of design to ensure these communities thrive.
Our Reconciliation Action Plan
Our ‘Reflect’ RAP creates a framework for MODE, as an overarching company and as individual studios, to apply to each location of Australia with regards to Reconciliation. Our RAP adds to our business model and ensures our commitments to reconciliation are carried out through deliverables and actionable items that include and promote leadership of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples throughout all stages of design.
