National Assembly for Catalonia

The National Assembly for Catalonia (Assemblea Nacional Catalana, ANC) is a grassroots organization advocating for Catalonia’s independence from Spain. Founded in 2012, it mobilizes citizens through protests, campaigns, and public events to promote the idea that Catalonia should be a sovereign nation. The ANC aims to build support for independence by engaging ordinary Catalans, fostering a sense of national identity, and pressuring government institutions. It plays a significant role in the region’s political landscape, often acting as a catalyst for pro-independence movements and events, but it is not a governmental body itself.
