Assemblea Nacional Catalana

What Assemblea Nacional Catalana does

Assemblea Nacional Catalana (ANC) is a private civil society organization (associació) founded in 2011 and headquartered in Barcelona, Catalonia. Registered in the Register of Associations of Catalonia under number 46548-J/1 with CIF G65581621, its stated mission is the peaceful and democratic achievement of Catalan political independence. ANC operates as a cross-ideological, unitary grassroots movement independent of political parties, structured around a National Secretariat, territorial assemblies (Assemblees de Base) across Catalonia, and international diaspora chapters. It is led by president Josep Vila since April 2024, following predecessors Carme Forcadell (2012-2015), Jordi Sànchez (2015-2018), and Elisenda Paluzie (2018-2024).

The organization's core "products" are civic mobilization campaigns and platforms rather than commercial technology. Its product surface comprises the main website (assemblea.cat), the La Botiga online merchandise store, and a portfolio of campaign microsites including Prop de Casa (local commerce support), Antirepressió (anti-repression advocacy), Et queixes o actues? (citizen complaints), Per uns trens dignes (rail service advocacy), and the Congrés d'Independències Unilaterals. The underlying technology is standard web publishing infrastructure; no proprietary technology, APIs, or AI/ML capabilities are disclosed. ANC is a member of the UNPO and regularly coordinates joint advocacy with Òmnium Cultural, Consell de la República, AMI, and Lliga Espiritual.

ANC is funded through three primary revenue streams: recurring monthly membership dues at €4 (reduced) / €6 (general) / €12 (family) tiers, donations, and merchandise sales. Membership is not tax-deductible as ANC is not declared a Public Interest Entity. Go-to-market is community-led: direct online recruitment via "fes-te soci," volunteer registration, and grassroots mobilization through territorial assemblies. Customer segments are a horizontal base of Catalan independence supporters; no enterprise or B2B revenue is disclosed.
