The key partnership holders who have been involved in the establishment of the organisation are:

International Focus
Equilibrium explicity recognises that bipolar disorder is an international problem and that there is an inherrant need to develop models of health awareness and applicable and acceptable appproaches to treatment for non- westernised and developing nations. It also believes that the expeirence of national advocacy organizations can be usefully shared at an international level and seeks to promote this.
