The Apruebo Dignidad pact has its origins in the attempt to reunite the left into a large conglomerate. In the midst of the
pandemic, there were various attempts to seek unity in the opposition. One of them was Popular Sheet (), a platform that led left-wing political parties and movements with the intention of pushing
left-of-centre economic proposals in
Congress. After successful constituent elections, the parties confirmed a
presidential primary and the formalization of the electoral coalition on 19 May, amid failed talks with the
Socialist Party. These primaries summon the standard-bearer and current mayor of
Recoleta,
Daniel Jadue, who is supported by
Chile Digno composed of the
Communist Party and the
Social Green Regionalist Federation, and also the
Equality Party. On the other side was deputy
Gabriel Boric, who was supported by the
Broad Front as a whole. On 18 July 2021, the primaries of Apruebo Dignidad were held, giving as the winner the militant of
Social Convergence,
Gabriel Boric, who represented the coalition in the
presidential elections in November. Also, in the midst of talks, the possibility of the conglomerate forming a single list for the parliamentary elections was considered. On Thursday, 12 August, the conglomerate launched the Constituent Observatory Apruebo Dignidad, a
think tank that brings together four study centers of parties and movements that are members of the coalition: Saberes Colectivos (
Broad Front), Rumbo Colectivo (
Democratic Revolution), La Casa Común (
Common Force) and the Alejandro Lipschutz Institute of Sciences (
Communist Party). The main objective of the project is the need to forge links between the
Constitutional Convention and civil society for the monitoring and lifting of constitutional proposals, in addition to strengthening relations between the parties and movements that make up Apruebo Dignidad. On 11 August, the
parliamentary list of Apruebo Dignidad was formalized, composed of the parties and movements of the conglomerate that have parliamentary representation (
RD,
CS,
Comunes,
Unir,
PC,
FREVS,
AH). The objective of the bench was to improve parliamentary coordination in debates in Congress in the future; such as the 40-hour law, the tax on the super rich, among others. Likewise, the event ratified the support for Gabriel Boric's candidacy for the presidency. The
Equality Party decided not to support Boric and raise a parallel parliamentary list with the
Humanist Party called
Dignidad Ahora.
2021 presidential election Boric obtained 25.83% of the votes in the first round of the presidential election, securing his place in a run-off against
José Antonio Kast of the
Christian Social Front, who received 27.91% of the preferences. In the second round, that took place on 19 December, he won 55.87% of the votes, becoming president-elect of Chile. He was sworn in on 11 March 2022. On 24 September 2022, through a statement it was reported that the
Common Force political movement became part of the
Social Convergence party. In September 2023, the main leaders of Apruebo Dignidad acknowledged that the coalition had not been functioning for months; this coincided with the reflection process within the
Broad Front over a possible merger between all its parties. == Composition ==
