The Frente Amplio (Spanish for Broad Front, FA) is a Chilean left-wing political party. It was founded in 2024 as a result of the merger of the former coalition of the same name.
The Frente Amplio was formed as a result of the merger of left-wing political parties that aimed to change the political scene of Chile in favor of participative democracy and feminism.[2][3]
