June was PRIDE Month and here at IQ-EQ we want to celebrate and support our LGBTQ+ community. The #Luxembourg and #London offices both got involved in Pride month, from Bingo to a Prosecco Picnic to raise funds for the Mosiac Trust.
The IQ-EQ Beach Clean-up in the Netherlands was a great success! They divided into 2 small groups and together with Daan and Steef, professional ploggers, collected an amazing 74 kilos of litter! In addition to their effort, IQ-EQ donated €1000 to WNF (Worldwide Fund for Nature). It looks like they had a lot of fun for a great cause!
Today, IQ-EQ Luxembourg is celebrating Luxembourg’s Diversity Day. This initiative started in 2015 to encourage companies and public organisations to act for diversity and inclusivity. Earlier this week the office installed a Diversity photo booth. During the whole week of the Diversity Day, our Luxembourg colleagues have been invited to get their picture taken in front of a collaborative world map background, where everyone could point out a place which is special to them. Our Luxembourg office alone are represented by 39 different nationalities! To celebrate this incredible diversity, our Luxembourg colleagues are creating the very first IQ-EQ cookbook by sharing recipes that are meaningful to them, whether that’s a recipe from their home country, or from a special place they love. Let’s celebrate Diversity!
Our IQ-EQ Netherlands team recently delivered a car full of tea, coffee beans and gifts for the Food Bank in Haarlem. Find out how IQ-EQ involved, what the office donated and some photos of our IQ-EQ colleagues delivering the donations!
In celebration of International Earth Day, our Luxembourg office have highlighted their dedication to supporting our environment and reducing our carbon footprint. As Luxembourg’s Green Thinking Ambassador, Dirk Morin, Facilities & Business Center Manager, Luxembourg looks back on their local green initiatives and shares some of the office’s sustainability ideas.

Our #Belfast office has unanimously chosen their charity for the year @Aware NI. It is an extremely difficult time for so many people and by choosing AWARE, the office will be helping to support those in Northern Ireland affected by depression, anxiety and bipolar disorder. This charity continues to try and provide support for those who need it the most and by raising funds we can help them move their support services online. At a time where we have all been working from home for the best part of a year and social interaction has been significantly reduced due to distancing measures, it is apparent that the Belfast office recognises more than ever the importance of looking after not only our physical but our mental health. Choosing a mental health charity demonstrates this commitment to tackling and supporting positive mental health to all staff. #insideiqeq
