Action for Andorra (Catalan: Acció per Andorra), often shortened to Action (Acció, styled as ACC!Ó), is a social liberal party in Andorra founded in September 2022 as a split from the Liberals of Andorra.[1]

History

The party was created after the four councillors in the General Council of the Liberals of Andorra – Ferran Costa, Marc Magallon, Silvia Ferrer and Eva López – together with Minister Judith Pallarés announced that they had left the party on 14 June 2022.[2] Pallarés claimed that they left the party due to disagreements with a conservative turn inside the Liberals, while she and the councillors preferred a social liberal project. They continued to remain in the government and give it support.[3]
