    • The FORJA Concertation Party (Spanish: Partido de la Concertación FORJA) is a political party in Argentina. It was founded in 2008 as a split from the Radical Civic Union. The party now forms part of the Unión por la Patria, the former ruling coalition which supported then- President Alberto Fernández, formed in 2023 to support Sergio Massa's presidential candidacy.[4] At the time of its foundation and until the alliance's dissolution, the party was a member of the Front for Victory.[5]

    The party counts with minor representation in the Argentine Chamber of Deputies: Mabel Caparrós, national deputy from Tierra del Fuego, was elected in 2019.[6] In 2019, FORJA also gained its first-ever provincial governor: Gustavo Melella, also of Tierra del Fuego.[3]

    History[edit]

    The party takes its name from the historical organization FORJA (Spanish: Fuerza de Orientación Radical de la Joven Argentina), which existed from 1935 to 1945. Like the historical Forja, the Concertation Party is of Radical origins but is ideologically and politically closer to Peronism.[7]
