Federal character and remit 1. EQUO is founded for an indefinite period as a political party at the Spanish State level. EQUO shall have the European Green Party and the Global Greens as its international political reference. 2. EQUO is a party structured as a federal organisation which, within a common ideological and political framework, is composed of territorial organisations at the autonomous community or island level. These organisations may be legal entities in themselves and shall respect the federal distribution of competences described in article 17. Within the remit of their competences they shall be governed by their own constitutions which shall be compatible with the overall framework of rules and regulations of EQUO, this Federal Constitution and the general principles of procedure described within and in all cases ensuring the equality of rights and obligations of all the members of EQUO throughout the Spanish state. 3.

Other political and social organisations may partner with EQUO through the relevant bilateral agreements and in line with this Constitution.

Its objectives shall be: a) To promote an economic, social and environmental model which, reducing the ecologic footprint, allows to responsibly reconcile human development with the current and future physical limits of the planet, setting human wellbeing and social justice as objectives of the economy. b) To promote the defence and conservation of biodiversity and the rights of all living beings in a balanced relationship between the human being and other forms of life. c) To defend and promote the necessary and enriching relationship between ecology and feminism, to promote real equality and respect of diversity, and erradicate any form of discrimination or violence towards women. d) To contribute to a change in the economic model which supersedes capitalism and productivism. 2 e) To contribute to mitigate the effects of climate change through the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions at the rates recommended by the scientific community, and through the construction of resilient societies. f) To promote a change in the energy model towards a post-fossil fuel scenario, based on the improved management, reduced demand, energy saving and efficiency and renewable energy generation.
