The Principle
For a moment, we all stand
equal under the sun.
At the March and September equinoxes, daylight and darkness come into near balance across the planet. People have marked these turning points for thousands of years. EQ uses that shared moment to ask a simple question: what is one meaningful thing you can do next?
How it Works
Small collective actions, global impact.
1
Choose
Choose one of six Commitments and find a meaningful next step.
2
Commit
Make the action specific, achievable and yours.
3
Create
Upload your equinox image and generate your EQ image.
4
Share
Share the image and your Commitment publicly in your own voice.
5
Return
Come back at the next equinox to report, renew or go further.
1
Climate
Reduce your personal or organisational impact across energy, travel, consumption and investment.
2
Nature
Protect or restore the natural world through actions that support habitats, wildlife and the places around us.
3
Community
Give your time, skills or presence to a local cause, group or need.
4
Care
Take action to protect or improve health and wellbeing, your own or someone else’s.
5
Giving
Give money, time or resources to a cause or person who needs them.
6
Voice
Use your civic, professional or community influence on something that matters.
Commitments
EQ is built around 6 broad commitments.
You do not need to identify with a movement, organisation or cause first. Choose the area that feels most relevant, then make one specific action your own.
Make your Commitment Visable.
Choose one meaningful action and make it your own. Capture your equinox image from wherever you are, then EQ will create a shareable image you can download, post and use to invite others to take part.
Your Commitment does not end when you share it. Carry it forward for six months, then return at the next equinox to reflect, renew or take the next step
