Izquierda-Ezkerra
__NOTOC__ Izquierda-Ezkerra (I-E) is a coalition in the constituency of Navarre, Spain. It was established in January 2011 after Batzarre split from the Nafarroa Bai coalition. Batzarre accepted United Left of Navarre's call to form a coalition along with Socialist local figures—the ''Plataforma Navarra por el Cambio''—disgruntled with the Socialist Party's social policies and standing support to the conservative anti-Basque Unión del Pueblo Navarro (UPN). The Los Verdes-Grupo Verde ecologists joined them too. In the elections to the Parliament of Navarre held on 22 May 2011, the coalition won three seats and 5.70% of the valid votes. The coalition defends an approach of "inclusion and coexistence", as opposed to exclusion and confrontational attitudes. The party also advocates for an alliance of leftist forces of Navarre and an end to UPN's on-off decades long tenure in office, as well as an understanding with leftist Basque nationalist parties.

Navarre
Navarre (; es, Navarra ; eu, Nafarroa ), officially the Chartered Community of Navarre ( es, Comunidad Foral de Navarra, links=no ; eu, Nafarroako Foru Komunitatea, links=no ), is a foral autonomous community and province in northern Spain, bordering the Basque Autonomous Community, La Rioja, and Aragon in Spain and Nouvelle-Aquitaine in France.

Cambio-Aldaketa
Cambio-Aldaketa ( en, "Change") was a grouping of electors in Navarre supported by the "quadripartite", the political parties supporting Uxue Barkos's regional government—Geroa Bai, EH Bildu, Podemos and Izquierda-Ezkerra—to contest the 2015 Spanish Senate election. The first incarnation of the alliance was disbanded after it secured only one out of the four directly-elected senators in Navarre, with its stated aim having been to win the election and subsequently obtain three senators. The coalition was re-established by the same parties ahead of the April 2019 Spanish general election, but it scored a new electoral failure by not being able to obtain any of the senators at stake. This defeat would lead to the agreement's signatories clashing over its interpretation ahead of the election of Navarre's appointed senator in August/September 2019, leading to a fracture within the former quadripartite in which Podemos joined Geroa Bai and the Socialist Party of Navarre (PSN) in the ...
