Metabolic Foundation was started in 2013 to enable local communities to be self-sufficient for their own resources and economic empowerment. We prototype new technologies, showcase promising solutions, educate community entrepreneurs, initiate community fablabs, and create digital resources like tools and guides that lower the threshold for taking action that can jump-start bottom-up prosperity and resilience.
