It began as a foundation on 24 September 2010 with the goal of becoming "the seed and source of debate aboutpolitical ecologyandsocial equity,originating a sociopolitical movement ".[8]
History
[edit]The first election it contested was the2011 Spanish general election,obtaining 216,748 votes (0.9%), making it the 9th most supported party.[9]The party was fifth in Madrid,[10]achieving representation thanks to the Valencian coalitionCompromís-Q,in which Equo participated.[11]
At thenational elections of 20 December 2015,Equo joined the list of Podemos. This resulted in seats for three Equo candidates:Juantxo López de Uralde,Rosa Martínez and Jorge Luis Bail.[12]
In the runup to theNovember 2019 Spanish general election,Equo withdrew fromUnidas Podemosand agreed anelectoral fusionwithMás País.Disagreeing with this decision and willing to stay with Unidas Podemos, Equo founder Juanxto López de Uralde left the party and foundedGreen Alliance.[13]
In 2021, the party decided to change its name to Greens Equo.[14]
