Partido Libertad y Refundación (LIBRE)
Partido Libertad y Refundación was founded in 2011 in the wake of the US-backed coup against then-president Manuel Zelaya, LIBRE has built a “broad front of popular resistance” in Honduras, leading the struggle to reclaim the country’s democracy from the grips of military control.
LIBRE is constituted as a broad, democratic, revolutionary and inclusive political force, the largest political force in the country. The party — led by Honduras’ first woman president, Xiomara Castro — defeated the coup regime at the ballot box in 2021, restored democracy and has charted a new course for Honduras.
