Our Story
Our Story
Driven by Purpose, Guided by Culture
Our business began its journey in 2015 with a small, dedicated team consisting of two Aboriginal women and two non-Aboriginal men, headquartered in Canberra. Over the years, we have steadily grown and shifted, navigating challenges and embracing opportunities, which culminated in a significant milestone in November 2023, when we became an Aboriginal and female-owned and led company. In May 2025, we rebranded to reflect our evolving identity, introducing a new logo that marked the transformation from majority to wholly owned, capturing our growth, change, and renewed vision for the future.

Our Journey
Weaving Solutions Together...Empowering Lasting Change
This artwork tells the evolving story of Curijo’s journey, marked by three central meeting places that symbolise significant milestones in its growth and transformation over time. Each meeting place reflects pivotal moments of progress, learning, and leadership, illustrating Curijo’s enduring commitment to growing self-determination, equity, and prosperity.
The journey path that weaves between these meeting places signifies Curijo’s continuous dedication to walking alongside communities and organisations. Along this path, people are depicted as symbols of Curijo’s staff, whose individual contributions, expertise, and passion guide and support the organisation’s vision and purpose at every step.
Smaller meeting places are interwoven along the journey, representing the diverse communities and organisations that Curijo supports. These connections emphasise Curijo’s collaborative spirit and its foundational belief that meaningful change is created through shared knowledge, mutual respect, and partnership.
The hills rising in the background symbolise Curijo’s expansive reach across all of NSW, ACT and beyond. Each hill reflects the challenges, growth, and triumphs experienced in different regions, showcasing the organisation’s dedication to creating impactful, statewide change while honouring the Cultural landscapes it engages with.
Altogether, this artwork is a powerful representation of Curijo’s evolving journey, one grounded in Cultural strength, driven by connection, and destined for shared growth and success.
