Unidas Podemos (Spanish: [uˈniðas poˈðemos]), formerly called Unidos Podemos (Spanish: [uˈniðos poˈðemos]) and also known in English as United We Can, was a democratic socialist electoral alliance formed by Podemos, United Left, and other left-wing to far-left parties in May to contest the 2016 Spanish general election. The alliance's official pre-agreement was announced on 9 May 2016 after weeks of negotiations. It was re-styled to the feminine form of its name ahead of the April 2019 Spanish general election.
Part of the anti-austerity and anti-globalization movements, it advocates direct democracy, federalism, and republicanism in Spain. After the November 2019 Spanish general election, it formed a coalition government with the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party.
